I know how to shoot better than a gorilla.

Insert Planet of the Apes intro.

It’s unlikely but I’m hoping my company switches to Linux based operating systems.

• G - Google
• A - Apple
• F - Facebook
• A - Amazon
• M - Microsoft

5 companies, each own a portion of the internet like it’s the stock market.

I’ve used Unbound for years but recently had to switch to Blocky for some weird reason.

Blocky doesn’t appear to be a Recursive DNS resolver? It seems to still rely on upstream providers whereas Unbound directly communicates with the root distributors for the domains you lookup.

Need the pin to access them notes.

I’ve a single Pihole instance running on a RPi 4 and have experienced not a single instance of any of the 3 probs you mention. Except, of course, the very few minutes it takes for a reboot which I can schedule and am aware when it’s happening…

Yeah, I believe it can vary depending on how you host it.

In my experience whenever I brought down the PiHole instance (Docker Compose) I would lose all internet access, which is expected since I’m essentially taking away my devices one and only library, so to mitigate this I spun up PiHole on another device and set that as my secondary (backup) DNS resolver.

This way I can take a container down, update it and all without losing resolution to the internet.
