What's the advantage of spinning up an entire VM to run a local Pi Hole instance instead of just setting up a firewall or using a browser blocker like uBlock Origin? I was under the impression that spinning up a Pi Hole instance is really only necesary if you own devices which don't allow for such things, like smart TVs and other internet-connected appliances.


This is not a case of one or the other. I do all of the above and more.


...while you're traveling? Can you provide more details? I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around your use case.
