  • zrok

    Geo-scale, next-generation peer-to-peer sharing platform built on top of OpenZiti.

  • I've started with a RPi 1 Model B rev 2 (armv61) running dietpi, which should be fine for Pihole but I'm also thinking of using it to run software to control remote access to my server, which could be Tailscale or Wireguard but zrok looks interesting. Unfortunately that doesn't have a armv61 version, only armv7 Releases · openziti/zrok (github.com) so I couldn't run it on this RPi.

  • gravity-sync

    💫 The easy way to synchronize the DNS configuration of two Pi-hole 5.x instances.

  • Run Pihole on both, if DNS goes down its painful. You can sync them with https://github.com/vmstan/gravity-sync
