I love PiHole. I’ve used it in the past and it was powerful! I also use an OpenVPN/Wireguard based VPN.

So is there a service that combines the two features? Lets me import adblock lists and also VPN configurations?

Preferably something that runs in a docker container that I can throw upon portainer and running within minutes!

Thanks!

    Tailscale uses wireshark, which is peer-to-peer. Their “free” plan allows you to set up a network using their “coordination” server, which simplifies administration of your tailnet.

    You control dns, exit nodes, etc, so tailscale isn’t involved with the vpn itself, hence no speed limits.

    You ultimately determine what tailscale collects as far as client logging.

    If you block client logging, Tailscale may not be able to provide technical support.

    I imagine the docker image serves to eliminate tailscale from the equation.

    ETA: there are quite a few ad-blocking dns servers.

    I currently use nextdns.io

      So do you run a tailscale exit node on one of the public clouds or a VPS provider like DigitalOcean?

        Exit node is a VPS (Racknerd)
