After more than 5 years, Pi-hole is now finally available in nixpkgs/NixOS!
github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/

The package request was one of the most upvoted nixpkgs issues.

There is also a NixOS module available, you can find the options here: search.nixos.org/options?chann

There were other good options with comparable functionality before (adguard-home, blocky), but it's still nice to have for people migrating from non-NixOS pi-hole.

I hate footnotes, especially on the web, and hopefully by the end of this, you will too.

Many companies and individuals are trying to mislead people about the future of GrapheneOS to promote their insecure products and services. GrapheneOS is not going anywhere. We've made it clear we're shipping Android 16 soon and that the supported devices will remain supported.

We need help testing our experimental Android 16 support. If you have a spare 6th, 7th, 8th or 9th generation Pixel, you can help us test early builds for Android 16 soon. You can join our testing chat room via Matrix or Discord if you want to help. grapheneos.org/contact#communi.

Manchmal glaube ich, genau zu wissen, wie das Playbook ab hier läuft und verliere alle Hoffnung. Dann erinnere ich mich, dass ich nicht hellsehen kann, die meisten Dinge nicht weiß und dass Menschen chaotisch sind. Ich habe keine Ahnung, was geschehen wird. Ich tue das Richtige und habe Hoffnung.

Old protest story:

Guy standing alone on street corner with “STOP GOVT ABUSE” sign.

Car stops and driver says, “You don’t really think you’re going to change the govt standing here with your little sign.”

Protestor laughs and shakes his head: “I don’t do this to change the govt. I do this so the govt doesn’t change me.”

A cartoon titled ‘The Life of a Scientist’.

Baby: Such a mysterious world! 
Child: I must search for answers 
Young adult: Each answer leads me to more questions 
Middle age: ... At least I've got lots of questions 
Old age: Ok, I guess questions are my thing now 
From grave: Such a mysterious world!
