@Keneda @Ian Thanks for your input. I'm getting the impression that this is beyond the level of technical expertise I'm willing to invest right now.
Plan B is to repurpose one of my old laptops to run Pi-Hole. That should be more within my abilities!
@Ian ah. In that case it doesn't do the same as Pi-Hole.
With Pi-Hole you can use it with your entire home network. You use it as a DNS redirect and it blocks any ip addresses associated with ad-networks. (I may be using the terminology wrong...)
@Ian thanks for the suggestion. I guess that this is an equivalent app, but I can't figure out how to make it work. I can't find any documentation for it either. I tried following the Pi-Hole documentation, but it doesn't really seem to apply.
Sorry if I'm being dense, but I'm just a basic user (capable of copying and pasting commands, and following step-by-step instructions only).
I think the relevant app is uAdBlockNG now.
I was wondering if it is possible to run pi-hole on my pixel 2 running Ubuntu touch? It seems like a good use case if i can get it to work.
Pi-hole is an app (originally designed to run on a raspberry pi) to block adverts over a whole network. See link for info.
It should run on Ubuntu, but i can't figure out a way to install it on my phone. I'm a very basic user, but i can follow reasonably simple instructions.
Genius!
That worked a treat.
Well, I've gotten the Netherlands one working. And the USA one is taking much longer to fail than it used to! I'll count that as progress.
Hi All
I'm looking to add a VPN to my Nexus 5 running Ubuntu Touch.
I already have ProtonVPN, and I've tried following the tutorial, but I've found that it doesn't work. I have done some searches and it seems like other people have similar issues with ProtonVPN.
So I'm asking for recommendations of free, reasonably secure VPN services that are easy to set up in UT. Recommendations that people are actually successfully using.
I have some technical skills, and can follow simple instructions, but I'm not into any coding or anything like that.
I'm getting a 404 error when I try to click through that link.
Is it down? Or moved?
Does this even still work?
