I don’t really use facebook anymore so couldn’t care less; but so happened to log in today to change my password and saw this on my front page.

    Pihole was once a good adblocker, but as more and more websites realize ads being served from an external domain are easily blocked, they too push their ads through their own domain.

    Pihole is still good for some pages, but mostly, its useless as an adblocker.

      I have 2 piholes on my network, mostly useless they might be but both block over 20% of the traffic, ublock origin and Firefox take care of the rest. Are you sure you set it up correctly?

        20% is a far cry from what it used to be, and it also depends on your use case.

        I’m spend my time online 60% on lemmy, 30% on YouTube, and 10% elsewhere.
