I use Pi-Hole and works great. I’ve heard about AdGuard and seems the same thing as PiHole, but you have to install an app/extension. Everyone in this community recommend NextDNS. Whats the difference between them?

Wait, you tunnel queries to your upstream DNS through a VPN? Nice.
I’ll try to take a look at Blocky when I have the time
I use Tailscale to do this and it works quite well. I also use it to keep my pihole always reachable from my devices so I can continue to use it as my DNS server even when my phone is on cell data, etc.
I run a secondary Pihole on an AWS host that is also linked by tailscale as a fallback
Thanks, this is a great idea.

I was planning to use UnBound as my recursive resolver with Blocky behind it. As for filtering by IP, multiple instances with some simple Network ACLs should do the trick. Thanks for the idea.
The problem with UnBound is that it doesn’t use TLS whilst connecting and communicating to root servers and the like. TBH your idea of using a VPN seems excellent with my use-case, and if I rotate my VPN server every now and then my ISP along with other trackers might just be lost trying to find and correlate my DNS queries to my identity. Thanks again, I need to think more about this.
