I have been working to improve the Pi-hole’s performance and and also make it easier to add additional sources you may want to pull domains from. Eventually, I would like the Pi-hole to block tracking domains, analytics, and malware domains, too. The new version of the script will make this much easier.
The mahakala list had a huge update and actually makes the Pi-hole run very slow. There is a workaround, and a hopeful fix somewhere down the line. If you like the P-hole and want to help, you can donate using the buttons below. Donate Bitcoins
The command line is great, but wouldn’t it be nice to use a Web browser to update or change settings? Someone is working on this and the hope is to integrate it with the Pi-hole.
There are many improvements happening to the Pi-hole including a larger list of ad-server domains and better performance. Check it out.
Since the article on Lifehacker, there have been a lot of pull requests and suggestions for improvements. There are some great ideas and I want to implement them all. Since I only blog in my free time, it may take a bit, but I am definitely going to work on it.
