Pi-Hole as an app


Recommended Posts

Posted

Love to have pi-hole as an app.

I have a skill (bit like Linus) that just updating Ubuntu OS (which I run pi-hole on because it’s supported) randomly breaks the OS and often requires a full reinstall to recover.

tad annoying so having this as a simple app install would save me time and fear of this random faults.

Something like this is something that I would like to eventually be able to do. I was hoping that with the support of docker containers I had dreamed that eventually my media server would take over tasks exactly like this once HexOS came to fruition.

+1 to this!
I posted somewhere else on here about how I spent so many hours going through tutorials setting up OMV and Pi-Hole on my old NAS. Once I finally had it built and working, I lost the mojo to do anything with it.

Having pi-hole as an app that can be run as easily as the plex integration looks to be would be game changing and gives the NAS that little bit more utility.

I have had that happen to me so main times that I now cheat. I download DietPi for x86 and put it on a Dell micro pc. After the install you can pick tons of apps to run and they update easy. I have been doing that now for about 3 years or more and. have never had an issue. You can also download it for raspberry pi.  Also I actually have to small micro pc's that i have as nas1 and nas 2 in my house doing it this way.
