Hey folks, I just realized my pihole server, running on a Ras Pi 3 needs to be rebuilt from scratch. I’ve seen many mentions of AdGuard DNS here though. What’s your thinking on which is better now?

We’re a small family, looking for a basic ad blocking, set it and forget it, solution.

EDIT: I’d prefer the software be open source.

    If you care about DoT or DoH Adguard Home will support it out of the box (which is why I use it)
    you can make pi-hole also support DoH/DoT albeit little bit more complicated with an extra service like stubby/unbound

    otherwise it really doesn’t matter, both are open source and easy to setup for unencrypted dns requests

      When I saw that there was a pihole update to a new major version I got so excited hoping it would finally support DoH or DoT - nope. So disappointed.

      Sticking with Adguard then.
