    You really should still use both, have a Pihole and use uBlock. For one, if you have a mobile computer like a laptop or tablet, you may take it with you where you don’t have your Pihole (unless you set up a VPN at home which still should have uBlock Origin). There’s also some ads that the Pihole can miss or websites like YouTube where uBlock Origin is nearly flawless in the browser.

    Though many modern ISPs make it difficult with how they lock down their routers they supply you, making it difficult to set up a PiHole without some changes to your network. But that’s another topic for another conversation…

      For sure you should use uBlock, I’m just saying that for the money a Pi is better than AdBlock Plus.

      Tailscale makes it realy easy to connect your pihole remotely (it even has a guide on how to set it up here), and has the aded bonus that you can get it to point to your pihole’s DNS without having to touch any router settings if that has been an issue for you :)
