It says on their main page… it’s basically self hosted GitHub.

Unfortunately that doesn’t seem to have been the case his entire life so far.

The main reason is that it lets me access my home network. So if I want to watch a movie or something I have stored on my NAS, I can do that without exposing that service to the internet. Or if I want to Remote Desktop into one of my computers. And it’s a decent way to protect Internet traffic while on an untrusted public network.

I used to use the AdGuard app on my iPhone, but 1) I found for whatever reason it didn’t seem to work as well as the standalone self hosted version. The way it works on phones is that it does some sort of local VPN trickery, and for whatever reason it’s like it would temporarily stop working. Who knows. But 2) now I just have a single instance of AdGuard to manage and get its benefits on all my devices. I don’t need to maintain lists or rules for the one running at home and separately maintain rules in the phone app version.

I have AdGuard set up at home and OpenVPN so I can connect to my home network and route all my traffic through it. Gives the same ad blocking ability but without the need to travel with it.

Oh, well that’s completely fine then.

Cries in Apple.

It’s like an anti-theft ink tag. 😂

What’s your new career?

Sorry, I have no idea how to send you a message other than what I already did.

Sorry, all out. Only had 3.

I haven’t used Pi-Hole in a long time to know that, but I don’t seem to have any issue with them using AdGuard Home.

It’s not something the average person can or will do, but if you’re so inclined you can run Pi-Hole or AdGuard Home and have all your iOS devices go through it.

I even set up a VPN for when I’m away from home that I can connect to and get routed through my home internet connection which gives me ad blocking on the go.

Or if you want a simpler answer, look into using the AdGuard app on your iOS device.

There shouldn’t be any reason you can’t change the DNS setting on your devices though, right? You’re not required to use your router for DNS.

I assumed it was just a little changing booth for people on the beach to use.

I have a Synology NAS that holds all my important data. Then it does nightly backups to Synology C2.

I’m not sure I would say that Nvidia works “great”. I’ve had numerous issues over the years trying to get my laptop with an Nvidia card set up and working just right. I’d say it’s more like Nvidia “can” work in Linux.

I just bought a new laptop with AMD graphics, and so far the difference is night and day. It just works.

Oh yeah, I definitely agree. Just pointing out it’s nowhere near as difficult/complicated to build or maintain apps for multiple platforms like it used to be.
