  • pihole-updatelists

    Update Pi-hole's lists from remote sources easily

    pihole-updatelists with the recommended lists

  • raspihostblock

    Domains blocked, optimized for PiHole

    Yeah, it's nice to just have and forget about, it's pretty easy though, just gotta ssh into it and do: pihole -up to update the core/ftl/web interface. Updating the lists etc you can do in the interface at http://pi.hole then just log in and I think it's under "tools" to update gravity. I use a huge list on mine (as well as some smaller ones) from: https://github.com/thomasbnt/raspihostblock I also have mine set up with "unbound" for recursive dns which is easy to find guides on, all on a pi zero. It only uses up 40-50% "load" and 20% of the memory so I also run a twitter bot from the same pi zero! Amazing what £4 and a few guides can get you.

  • uMatrix-issues

    Discontinued This is the community-maintained issue tracker for uMatrix

    Is it a good idea to be using uMatrix? I was under the impression that development on the project ended back in 2020, the code is archived and no longer actively maintained.

  • pihole-regex

    Custom regex filter list for use with Pi-hole.

  • bypass-paywalls-chrome

    Bypass Paywalls web browser extension for Chrome and Firefox.

    the paywall extension I currently use (https://github.com/iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome/) got kicked off of the chrome extension "store" for I guess obvious reasons, and it's annoying to manually install and keep up to date.

  • 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.

  • blocky

    Fast and lightweight DNS proxy as ad-blocker for local network with many features

    Just want to toss Blocky in as an option. It's similar to pi-hole but written in Go. Its sleek has great built in DNS features beyond just blocking. Is still in development and the creator is incredibly active and helpful in GitHub.
