I’ve been using NextDNS for a while now. It’s great compared to VPN implementations like Blokada because it frees up your phone to use an actual VPN.

I’ve found PDNSQS for when I need to temporarily disable ad blocking, a really nice addition.

Free as in freedom. Not free beer.

You gotta admit, it’s fun to meme the opposite camp. Whether you are a GUI or CLI person.

Things break in weird ways on Linux due to dependencies. Snap/Flatpak/AppImage has yet to show if it’s enough to fix the issue.

Where I’m from, it’s legal to download cracked games so long as you’ve bought it legitimately. Paying for games isn’t a problem, it’s treating everyone as suspects that bugs me.

It’s also part of what I want to avoid with something GUI-based/low maintenance.

Reddit def won, but I have no idea why people still continue to moderate it for free. It’s crystal clear that the do not care about their mods, and for all intends and purposes treat them as peasants.
