Sync Local DNS and Lists on second pihole - latest way?
OR I could implement https://github.com/vmstan/gravity-sync as it's last commit was a year ago but users still seem to be using it.
- PiHole redundancy
- Have any idea ?

Is it possible to have 2x DHCP servers with Pi-Hole + Gravity Sync?
I run the split DHCP approach for years without issues. Having only one PiHole with DHCP Server doesn’t give you a fully redundant system. I don’t use Gravity Sync myself, but their wiki covers this case with examples: https://github.com/vmstan/gravity-sync/wiki/DHCP-Replication

Two piholes and both with unbound?
the github page has a really good walkthrough and explanation

Running PiHole on a second server
I don't have anything add to your question. But I recommend installing gravity-sync if you're going to run two piholes. It will sync up DNS entries (among other things) automatically to the second pihole when you add a entry one of them. https://github.com/vmstan/gravity-sync

how much traffic would you expect to go to secondary pihole?
If you go the 2 pihole route, I strongly recommend Gravity-Synch. https://github.com/vmstan/gravity-sync

Using RPi for Pihole and remote access gateway
Run Pihole on both, if DNS goes down its painful. You can sync them with https://github.com/vmstan/gravity-sync

What kind of Alpine user are you?
The control panel is called Homepage. I like it more than Heimdall. To manage Docker I use Portainer.
-
which dashboard without (!) docker?
You don't need to use heimdall with docker. You just need a working web server with PHP then install it from source: https://github.com/linuxserver/Heimdall Instructions are in the readme.

Homer Homepage
I prefer using Heimdall
- I'm looking for a web interface for me to access all my stuff from one domain without any ports
-
Heimdall v3 - has anyone tried it yet?
There is a 3.x branch, but it hasn't been touched in about a year. Contrast that to the 2.x branch which was updated within the last week. Seems maybe there isn't any development on the 3.x branch.
