Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Yes exactly, additionally you probably don't want to host your pi hole for external use (mobile phone or laptop in a different network) for the reason of latency.
The delay that is imposed by visiting your pi hole at home for each DNS request is going to be very unpleasant.
Rather rely on an external dns provider that provides pi hole like funticionality.
But this does not mean that you can't also host your pihole for internal use. I use it not just for removing ads, but also to allow the access of local domains.
Honestly I never thought about the latency issue, but I probably won't do it because of that now that you mention it. Much appreciated.
