Pihole, Adguard home or blocky - eviltoast

Hey guys, I recently bought an orange pi zero 2 and, as the title suggests, I want to put an ad blocker on it. Those are the options. I also will put openvpn for external connection to my network. Does anyone have experience with them? What would you suggest?

    No the one you asked, but I’m running pihole on a lenovo M93 (fedora server) with 8Gb of ram. No kill like overkill, I guess.

    The only time any of the cpu cores pops above 1% is when I’m updating the config, and at the moment it is hovering at 293 MB of RAM used according to the free command.

      Ha — no kill like overkill. Indeed! Thanks for sharing!

      I’m currently running pihole on a Pi 3B. It’s been solid for about a year on that hardware.

      I’m going to do a little digging on the compute needed per WireGuard connection. Cheers!
