Hey guys, I recently bought an orange pi zero 2 and, as the title suggests, I want to put an ad blocker on it. Those are the options. I also will put openvpn for external connection to my network. Does anyone have experience with them? What would you suggest?

    Every few months you’ll have to fiddle with your Pihole config as an upgrade breaks it. Unbound is a whole separate beast. Refreshing the lists seem to take a lot of processing. You need a second instance, just because.

    What are you talking about. None of that is true.

      Well, congrats to you. But as I said - on the same hardware, AGH runs so much smoother and more reliably. Maybe piHole is more reliable now - but back when I was using it, upgrades would kill configs, you’d have to reinstall – it was a common thing every few months. Forgot to mention, AGH also runs on BSD, which means you can run it on your Opsense / pFsense box too if you run one.
