    Technitium DNS Server

  • AdGuardHome

    Network-wide ads & trackers blocking DNS server

  • How it compares to let's say AdGuard Home? Seems similar https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

    🛡️ Synchronize AdGuard Home config to replicas

  • This is my only gripe as compared to AdGuard Home.

    However, Technitium is miles ahead in terms of raw customization. One such example is synchronizing DNS servers. Unlike AdGuard Home you have to resort to an additional app [1], with technitium you do proper NS transfer [2].
