Daily meme #1
NextDNS blocks websites on the device level (if you go to a banned website, it'll just say it doesn't exist), and has support for every major platform. Porn blocking is disabled by default tho, you need to enable it in the settings

In addition to Bitwarden, what are some worthwhile tools to enhance online security/privacy?
I'm a big fan of NextDNS to encrypt DNS queries and block trackers, malware, and ads on websites and in apps, and to provide a safer and more enjoyable Internet experience on all networks. https://nextdns.io

If you can’t find time to getting Pi-hole going, check out NextDNS, which is only $1.99 a month and very configurable (if you want. It also has sensible defaults.)

Do Broadcom's chips have remote management software like Intel's AMT and ME?
Not to confuse 'AdGuard Home' with AdGuard DNS, it's different things, AdGuard Home is more like PiHole. https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome

One Simple DNS rule...
I believe this is an AdGuard filter rule, or at least it might work as one. This filter would block all http(s) traffic from the domain facebook.com including subdomains. ^ is a separator between the pattern and the rule modifiers. ||facebook.com^ alone ia rule, and would block all traffic from facebook.com. $ signifies the start of rule modifiers following the pattern. client='' is a rule modifier - I'm guessing it restricts the rule to that IP address but it doesn't seem to be a standard AdGuard rule modifier, I couldn't find it in the docs after a few minutes.

DNS managing in a Wireguard tunnel configurated on a vps with piHole + cloudflared container. Need little help
Not an exact fix to your existing setup per se but replacing pihole/cloudflared with Adguard Home would give you the same functionality (better, imo) in a simpler topology.
