      @jaredbusch What do you use for content filtering at your house?

      Parental oversight.

      Agree 100 % However, I'd like to also protect my 7 year old on his ipad, from accidentally going somewhere he shouldnt. He only goes where we tell him he can, but I'd like that extra layer of protection.

                  Me? Yes. But no, that is not how I found out about it. That is courtesy of a user and the /nsfw directory.

                      @jaredbusch on, there is a SFW portion, now I get it.

                      Cool.

                        And it is not as simple as a regex or something on /nsfw. Because you can click on an image to get to the images tagged as the image you click on.

                        For example this picture is on /animals

                        But if I click that title, the URL changes to https://scrolller.com/r/tuckedinkitties

                        Which is nothing but

                        Now imagine trying to fight that in the /nsfw section..

                              I had Pi-Hole running for 10 minutes. It's amazing how much is being blocked already.

                                So, combining the Cloudflare DNS and the pi-hole filter is basically like having a firewall with content filtering?

                                If so, I just upgraded 2 of my Raspberry Pi's here at work. Might have a new project for home with one of the older R-Pis now.

                                  CloudFlare DNS is just DNS, just like any other DNS. However, their focus is on privacy, and they claim that they will not keep or sell your browsing history. Also, from what the stats say, they are much faster than other big DNS servers like 8.8.8.8

                                  Pi-Hole blocks ads/ad domains, but is also capable of blocking specific sites, or site lists.

                                    I'm using a pihole VM (just set it up a couple of nights ago) pointed at CloudFlare. DNS is nice and snappy, that's for sure!

                                      Same here. Exact same setup. I'm just amazed at how much has been block in the past 15 minutes alone.

                                        Yeah, you don't realize how much garbage you are downloading for every little thing until you use Pi-Hole.

                                            I used Steve Gibson's DNS Benchmark tool on my network and Cloudflare's DNS servers didn't beat Quad9 by much. May be worth using the tool on your network to verify before switching your DNS. Needless to say, 1.1.1.1 was faster so I switched my pihole to Cloudflare.
