Hey yall, I want to get into self-hosting. I want to start from hosting on a raspberry pi, and I am just wondering if yall have any recommendations (I’ve never hosted anything before, but have experience in linux and programming). Sorry if it’s bit of a stupid question.

    Pihole my is choice too. It’s pretty good, but for some reason video ads still get through even off YouTube? Is it possible to block them?

        You are not wrong, but uBlock needs to be installed on each device and only works on the browser, while pihole blocks adds across the whole network for all devices.

        I have pihole but still use ublock on my personal computer

          I did recommend Pihole in my original reply. But there’s no way to block Youtube ads using it, as was being asked in the reply to my original reply.

      You can’t do that with Pihole as the ads come from the same domains, and basically need a browser extension or an app with a built in equivalent.

      If you’re in the UK though, it does block the ads on All4 which was a nice surprise. It even works for the TV app.
