I ordered a Raspberry Pi 5 so I have a Pi 3 that’s about to be redundant. I haven’t used Pi-Hole so I was thinking it’d be good for that but I’m curious if there’s any downsides for users. Are sites blocked if you dont whitelist them? That sort of thing.

Basically, I’m not worried about me having issues but I’m worried about a maintenance headache if friends and family can’t access things.

    There might be a chance for false-positives. Or to just clog your dns responses with repetitive queries.

    Then again, you don't need more than a HaGeZi blocklist anyway.

      There's a handful of lists at that link. Do you have a recommendation? Just their recommended multi pro list?
