  • I only use PiHole for a couple of months, it wasn’t easy to setup something that worked on my LAN and over internet. Initially I used OpenVPN but was hard to use it with profiles to identify the devices.

    Than a tried AdGuard Home, and use it with DoH/DoT server was very simple, and can easily use any profile for each device on LAN or DoH/DoT server.
    Can easily search logs and block/allow for each device.

    Give it a try, and use it for a couple days.

    I’m an old age redditor, and that was may reddiquette, “don’t downvote just because you don’t like the topic, maybe other people find it interesting”.

    Mostly I don’t downvote at all, only on some rude or spam posts.

    Reddit just become something where everyone downvote everything for no reason, even if just say “OK” ou “that’s cool”!
    On Lemmy (ate least for now), not so much or I don’t see it.

    If you see a post “orange is the best color”, don’t downvote just because you don’t like orange, leave a comment and express your opinion instead

    PS: There’s an old Reddiquette song, the same can be applied to fediverse

  • Depending of your instance, see the local communities, you should have some for “community request” or meta, look for the description of the communities.

    You can also request on other instance, doesn’t need to be on your instance. Some can be more restrict then others.

    There’s also theme specific instances, like Star Trek, Path of Exile, FOSS… each instance can have his own rules.




  • Instead of using and app for each service, you can use their page as webapp, with something like Native Alpha or web browser.

    Fedilab supports multiple networks, don’t take much to run it.

    There are some pros and cons of using native apps or web apps.
    Native apps can have some features that webapps don’t, like direct/quick share, notifications…

    Web apps you only need a web browser that’s already included, don’t take more space, use less battery for background process, and less permissions.
