you can make a bypass button; use as bookmark on phone and computer.
Mine is like this:
http://pi.hole/admin/api.php?disable=60&auth=

Disables pihole for 60 secs.
Your auth would need to be generated.

If you are buying this to run services or desktop replacement, just go with an Intel n95 or n100 mini pc. They are still 2x faster than the pi 5 and 4-5x faster than pi 4. By the time you buy a case and storage and power supply for the pi 5, you could just have a better mini pc that runs windows or any Linux version and you don't have to buy more for it.

FWIW, I didn't get charged sales tax, so this was only marginally more expensive than it would be at another location with free shipping + tax. Not nearly as annoyed with the shipping cost as I would be otherwise.


About the.. quibbling over whether it's worth buying these anymore..

Really depends on your usecase.

If your needs will be met by a $120 minipc then that's far and away the better purchase, but there are many 'niches' that an rpi can fill that a minipc cannot.

why do so many people compare this to mini pc? they're two different things.
I use my 8gb pi4 for pihole, airprint server, unifi controller. openvpn,
Then i have an older pi3b running open sprinkler.
then I have another pi running octoprint on my 3d printer
I have the pi5 8gb on the way to replace the pi4 8gb above.
Then I run a SFF computer with proxmox, true nas, HA, nextcloud, win10 vm.

those china/amazon mini pc everyone like are all full of spyware and bootleg windows license.

just buy what ever fits your needs. no need to compare machines. they all have their own purpose.

Pihole works just fine until you need to disable it for a specific site for your loved ones. Then it's the biggest pitas and makes you regret ever setting one up. Never again will I do network wide blocking. Maybe things have changed now but I'm not going through the trouble again. Browser based ad-blocking is good enough.

Pihole is great if you're the sole user and have no attachments. Rest assured that your wags and kids will find sites they use that won't work with Pihole.
You can do what I do and point only some of your devices' DNS settings at the Pi-Hole and others not.

Set your DHCP server to use the normal DNS, then on your devices, override the primary DNS setting with your Pi-Hole server.

Theoretically you could run separate Pi-Hole instances so that the family could each have their own Pi-Hole to control as they like.

On pihole you can also assign devices to a different group and not apply any adlists to that group. You'd have to reserve IPs on your router for this to work.

I run pihole on a 3B+ with only 1GB of RAM, this is overkill for pihole alone.
How do you handle the links on this site/app? I have to turn the wifi on my phone off otherwise I wouldn't be able to go to any link here

Quote from jasonjayhawk :
Yeah, simply whitelist the url. Not pihole fault, but depends on the block list you pick. Even then, you allow-list what you don't want blocked. Easy peezy, takes a few seconds. 10 to 15% of my lookups are blocked, saving me a lot of bandwidth.

I wish I could configure pihole to let me determine the TTL for lookups, though.
What about Google searches? Clicking a link after a Google search gets blocked every time. I have to temp disable pihole to get it to work.
TIA.

It's a worse piece of hardware because it's a fraction of the price.....
And if you're using the HDMI output on your Pi, you're doing it wrong......
I have 50 USB-C power supplies at home. That's why I didn't say all 50 are compatible, I said "several" are.
If one is only concerned about the current @ 5 volts, it's easy to use a 5V DC power supply and a hardwired USB-C cable.
That is really what the Pi requires, a 5V DC power source with enough amperage for all the accessories hanging off it. They just choose to use a USB-C connector instead of two pins, two screw downs, ring-n-tip, etc.

I think the Pi5's are due at Microcenter any day now. They stock the offical case as well as the active cooler. ETA prime and Explaigning Computers have done reviews and used the coolers availible at microcenter for the review. Get the Pi5 IMHO.

Pi5 has a real power button!

I wonder how long it will take for a case with a PCIE slot?
I hope not long!

Thanks! I wanted a small power pc to run small apps and stuff, it seems n100 mini pc is a better choice, more power and stuff. I don't really care about GPIO ....
