Hey, not sure if this is the right community, but looking for some information.
I’ve seen many people strongly recommend AdGuard Home for network-wide ad-blocking either in isolation, or in direct comparison to Pihole. But I can’t really find why there is such a strong recommendation. The only clear reason I’ve seen is that AdGuard is easier to set-up.
However, I already have Pihole set-up on all of my networks on separate Raspberry Pis at each location. I have it running as the DNS server so that every device that connects to the network automatically gets ad-blocking. I have a few groups set-up within Pihole for slightly nuanced blocking — i.e. some of my family still want to use Facebook etc. (on a separate subnet).
So my question is, considering I already have Pihole set-up, am I missing some key benefit that AdGuard Home would provide?
This guy is right.
I have used Pi-hole forever at home, but decided to try out AGH on my parents’ network. They do largely the same stuff, so if Pi-hole is working for you, stick with it; I do with my home network, too!
