I tried and it is beyond my very limited cell phone knowledge lol
Where to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps and figured out. Maybe one day I'll have enough time to sit in this with it..... Until then, this is seriously frustrating.
Yeah, I get that. I can handle pihole on the technical side, I even have about 5 abandoned pi's from projects past that would work just fine, I just don't have the time or desire to maintain one more thing out there on my network. NextDNS has worked perfectly, can be used on all devices (or a whole network at a time via the magic of DHCP), and is $20/year. Worth it.

I'm down for $20. I'll mess with it later. As with most of these apps, the instructions they give to change settings don't match up with phones menus. 😂
I will do some digging when I get a chance.

Okay… here we go again, opposite point of view. But…. There are really cool car ads on my iPad while using this forum. Ritz Carlton cruise line and any other related shit the Siri microphone (or Alexa) have heard me and my wife saying in the background. To make matters worse, I’ve been clicking on the ads that are really interesting. Lawd help me! What have I done? I’m really starting to dig these tailored ads 😱

I do set up my devices to give me ads to my liking. It’s some dumb question, somewhere in the iOS, every time you set up a new Apple device. I’d assume it asks peeps the same thing for Windows or Android or whatever. I just say yes to it “for a better ad experience” 😂. Figure what the hell, they’re going to force the 💩 on me anyways, why not crap I like 🤷‍♂️

I thought I was replying to somebody's comment, ended up having a uni pack delivered to my house.
