Ironically, I wish people including yourself knew more about shit like how PiHole/RaspPi simply leverage Unbound, which is not unique to only Pi software or Pi devices. You can do this same thing on any OS that has it installed.

Does Unbound work across the entire network on devices you can’t install it to directly, the way a pihole does?

Only if used as primary DNS service for whole network, however, has no where near the options pihole or adguardhome have; my limited experience is with it in opnsense, so by far isn’t complete but I disable it and forward everything to adguardhome.

What it can do in opnsense (for an example of what can be done with it, blocklist near bottom): https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/unbound.html

Adblock is more than just a DNS sink. I have both of those, but still use ublock origin.

Does it have a GUI or is it CLI only?
