I use Pi-Hole and works great. I’ve heard about AdGuard and seems the same thing as PiHole, but you have to install an app/extension. Everyone in this community recommend NextDNS. Whats the difference between them?

    You are incorrect. You can add custom lists to NextDNS

    Edit: I am so sorry. Apparently I was completely misremembering my setup.

    The official docs contradict me directly.

      I too was under the impression that you couldn’t add custom lists to NextDNS. Last time I researched this everything I found said you couldn’t as well. I know you can build your deny list but that can be time consuming. I do it, but would love to be able to pull block lists that are already compiled. Can you share more info on how to add custom lists to NextDNS? Thanks!

          Ahh no worries mate! I do it all the time! 😅

          I have been intending to explore other options outside of NextDNS because I want custom block lists. Just means the plan remains the same! Thanks for the update!
