Several years ago, I used Blockada, which was frequently recommended. According to some discussion threads, it seems to have fallen from grace.

What ad blocker that doesn’t require root do you use? What’s your experience with it? Would you recommend it?

    I considered setting up a pi hole or something similar, but worry about the bus situation and my family. I figure NextDNS would be easier to maintain or remove than added hardware.

        If I get hit by a bus, who will maintain it? Comes from working in IT and not having one person be the sole person with the knowledge of something. Also called the lotto situation. What happens if they win the lotto and bounce?

          Very very good point.

          I’ve basically told my SO to turn my server off and plug the ISP provided router in lol
