I ordered a Raspberry Pi 5 so I have a Pi 3 that’s about to be redundant. I haven’t used Pi-Hole so I was thinking it’d be good for that but I’m curious if there’s any downsides for users. Are sites blocked if you dont whitelist them? That sort of thing.

Basically, I’m not worried about me having issues but I’m worried about a maintenance headache if friends and family can’t access things.

    I’m using AdGuard, which is pretty similar. I had issues with my Sonos speakers. The devices couldn’t find the speakers until I set a few servers on the whitelist.

    Apart from that, all’s good.

      Good, Sonos is shit anyway.

      Why would a speaker even need an app in order to be configured when a webapp should be fine? And why would that app need GPS location data in order to do so? It is on my network, it should just find the devices on my network. I don’t need to be able to access it when I am on the other side of the world. It is a speaker.

      And most importantly, why would the app on the computer have LESS functionality than the mobile app?

      Sonos is the embodiment of enshittification.
