I was going to do the pihole thing, but when I looked into it, I was expecting a "Buy this, follow these steps to load this, plug it into this, configure this, done".
Instead it was utterly autistic, infuriating fucking bullshit. It was like if you wanted a towel rack, and instead of just being able to buy a goddamn towel rack, you only had a bunch of faggy insufferable woodworking nerds smugly telling you to just put some wood in your lathe and build it yourself.
There is a lot of autism surrounding linux, but pi-hole is pretty easy to set up. You probably found one of those guides that required you to use docker, which is a retarded thing to do on a machine that is dedicated to a single task. This is what you need to do to get pi-hole up and running.
Hell yeah, look at that. Yeah it was a couple years ago but for sure whatever I found was way more complicated and was talking about all these custom configs and needing to download weird shit from weird websites and then acting like it was all common knowledge. Thanks man, seriously.
Pihole.... It blocks not only notifications but also their ad servers.
They get no ad revenue or "telemetry/analytics" from me.

? There's a one step installation line in raspberry to install a pihole. I've done it several times
Just type ' curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | bash ' in ssh
Well easier to use portainer to manage dockers and compose imo than compose.ymls

LOL!, Yeah, it is not for everybody. If you are the "artsy" "creative" type and not technically inclined... may not be for you.
