  • Pi-hole

    A black hole for Internet advertisements

  • since most Mullvad applications now support the Block ads and Block trackers functionality/setting, I wonder how these compare against a locally running instance of Pi-hole network wide ab-blocking?

  • AdGuardHome

    Network-wide ads & trackers blocking DNS server

  • Side note: I prefer Adguard Home over pihole.

  • 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.
