Is there a chrome-book equivlent for easily managing a DNS block list, on device?
Yes, I can run something on my home netwok, but what I'm looking for is an easy, on-device solution, like installing a "local vpn" like #personalDNSFilter does on my phone, into which I can put my own block list, and easily add and remove entries.
Browser extensions not enough, want to intercept all IP.
@pseudonym @fdroid If it's an Intel, reload with Linux (Ubuntu 22 works, or Debian 12) and load pihole.
@pseudonym @fdroid Linux on Acer Chromebook is far more powerful than Google Chrome (especially the Chromebooks I have played with, which are *well* past their "expire date" and won't update).
@pseudonym @fdroid interesting problem. DNS serving is IP based (i.e. site/network configured; DHCP), so I have trouble imagining how a "for your domain" DNS service would work. A VPN provides a newer DNS server address, but that requires it to run constantly. I have set up ChromeOS Flex with a VPN and it disconnects when sleeping and needs manual reconnecting. Therefore: possible, but annoying. Reliable and automatic requires software mods of your host local DNS cache (like dnsmasq) cli flags.
