If you don’t trust the Pi-hole developers themselves, it isn’t too hard to build an equivalent setup with dnsmasq and your own configuration. Pi-hole does prioritize convenience over security in a number of ways so this isn’t an unreasonable choice.
okay
Why?
All of your traffic, every single DNS query going thru a single unverified codebase off of github? i mean i know regular folk are quite naive with tech. but i hoped us tech people are less so.
