    That’s my case. I send every new subdomain to my nginx IP on pi-hole and then use nginx as a reverse proxy

      That was my exact setup as well until I switched to a different router which supported both custom DNS entries and blocklists, thereby making the pi-hole redundant

        I run opnsense, so I need to dump pi-hole. But I don’t have the energy right now to do that.

        Pi-Hole was pretty straightforward at the time and I did not look back since then. Annoying, but easy.

          I use a MikroTik Router and while I do love the amount of power it gives me, I very quickly realized that I jumped in at the deep end. Deeper than I can deal with unfortunately.

          I did get everything running after a week or so but I absolutely had to fight the router to do so.

          Sometimes less is more I guess
