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.
events.gfe.nvidia.com is the main one that gets spammed if it fails.
Just use NVSlimmer to strip it out entirely. (grab that and the latest driver package from Nvidia, repeat for updates)
Does a similar utility exist for Linux, though?
On my Windows system I'm using NV Cleanstall to prevent installing telemetry and other unnecessary bits in the first place. Quite the nice tool as well
Not that I'm aware of, but I haven't looked for one either.
I manually added a handful of domains, and not a single one of them has been pinged so far. We'll see
