Ad blocking is something that slipped off my radar and I'd like to make another attempt at it.
Pi-hole and AdGuard Home are oft cited solutions. Who has experience with these? Any downsides? Any config concerns?
I'm debating whether I should run either one on my existing home automation Raspberry pi 4 or whether I should buy a new pi for that. If I need a new pi, then which one, case, power, etc.
At first blush it seems I might start with running AdGuard Home on my existing Pi. Some people run these on separate machines but I don't see ad blocking as critical. I think this requires having fallback DNS set appropriately.
The main thing I'm curious about is how many complaints I might get from my wife and kids about things not working and what I might need to put in place to accommodate any issues.
