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.

    Installing pihole on raspbian 'just works' but OK.

    Does it include filter lists and do those get auto-updated like pihole? What about whitelists and blacklists?

      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?
