blocky
Fast and lightweight DNS proxy as ad-blocker for local network with many features
Project mention: Time to retire this old guy HP DL740, only 8 socket server I’ll ever own haha | reddit.com/r/homelab | 2020-12-21But if you want something tiny, quiet, and extremely reliable to run some small containers, it's hard to go wrong. I run my adblocker and Unifi controller on one. My reason originally was so I could drop my server for maintenance/testing without worrying about affecting everyone else's DNS. I plan on shifting to Blocky soon in HA between a container in my RancherOS VM and a Pi.
