Hey folks, I just realized my pihole server, running on a Ras Pi 3 needs to be rebuilt from scratch. I’ve seen many mentions of AdGuard DNS here though. What’s your thinking on which is better now?

We’re a small family, looking for a basic ad blocking, set it and forget it, solution.

EDIT: I’d prefer the software be open source.

    Yes, it does.

    Actually with Technitium you can add a list from the internet, so it’s always up-to-date with the deny list you want… And yes, it does have whitelist and blacklist. Is a pretty complete DNS server

      AdguardHome has those features as well. What made you choose Technitium over AdguardHome?

        I didn’t know AdGuardHome while back when I was looking for a PiHole alternative. That’s why I chose Technitium over AdGuardHome
