I use Pi-Hole and works great. I've heard about AdGuard and seems the same thing as PiHole, but you have to install an app/extension. Everyone in this community recommend NextDNS. Whats the difference between them?

NextDNS seems cool but it looks like it is for-profit and proprietary software, which is a deal breaker for me. Even if their "free" tier were good for me, for now, the price and my privacy would always be subject to the whims of a company who is going to be trying to get money from me. Fuck that.

I am honestly surprised to see it recommended here on Lemmy. When I first heard of it, I went to their website to see what it's all about. I assumed it would be another self hosted DNS service, not a paid proprietary cloud service.

I wondered if it is astroturfing.
