Solved Pi-hole alternative

[jdb]

Hey guys

I am currently searching a Pi-hole alternative...

Are there any alternatives supporting FreeBSD?

Thanks in advance!

You will have to configure a couple of pkgs to function like Pi-hole. The pkgs include unbound, dnscrypt and so on. Tkae a look at https://github.com/lepiaf/adblock-unbound .

I'm using dns/void-zones-tools for quite some time now. Works great.

Thank you! Lamia & MarcoB

it is posible, that dns/dns2blackhole is doing the ame job as pi-hole?

 

[QuarzSnoopy]

...or dns/unbound?

This exact question was on HackerNews today. I will quote here some of the conversation:

"pihole is essentially this (dnsmasq + banlist), but with a pretty UI and admin page"
dns/dnsmasq is in ports and above is a banlist.

...or dns/unbound?

Yes, see https://github.com/cyclaero/void-zones-tools, this made it into the ports - dns/void-zones-tools, and there is also a fork wich include more black lists.

I just launched dnsadblock in case you're looking a hosted variant (with some extra features). Let me know if you have any questions.

Perfectly fine and entirely free service: https://adguard.com/

Specifically DNS-based: https://adguard.com/en/adguard-dns/overview.html

And for the android users, there is "dns666". It uses the DNS servers provided by the CCC, which filter pretty well.

When I use a dns like this it does not block ads in something like say, youtube. Anyone know why?

It doesn't work well with embedded ads into videos like YT does.
