Pi-Hole-for-WSL1 VS xWSL

I have a NAS running Windows hosting Pi-hole thanks to this. I use a VPN on that NAS and it connects to a server in another country. When I check the IP on any of my other devices, where the Pi-hole is the DNS server, the results show my IP is in my country. When I check the IP on the NAS, it shows as being in the other country.

As the pinned comment in that thread indicates, support queries for such should be directed to the project.

Also worth mentioning that on the project page, it states it's not an 'official' supported install method, and you should use the project's issues page for support questions. Don't want to bug the devs with an issue that might be Windows-specific.

NOTE: It's not an 'official' method to run Pi-hole, which means do not request support here. Use the project's GitHub site and file an issue there instead.

This may be to your liking.

Not seeing this in xWSL (Ubuntu 22.04)

Follow this: https://github.com/DesktopECHO/xWSL

You should be able to install xWSL at the very least. If it spits out an error let me know or post your issue to the project's GitHub issues page.

Foliate looks to work fine in xWSL if you download the non-Snap package from the Foliate PPA.
