Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    I guess I just don't trust Windows discord and Nvidia. I don't think DNS filtering will protect you if they control the computer

    Or android, ios, consoles, ... :p
    These are all devices pihole can help with that ublock cant. A combination of the 2 is key

    Well on android you can install browser extensions so that's not a problem.

    Anyway my point is that Ublock origin can be more than enough for many people who don't use such devices.

    Right, but again, thats only browser stuff. If i say android i mean the actual operating system and all applications/services that are running on your phone.
    My point was that ublock is limited to a browser, and there is so much stuff that can be blocked, more than just ads.
