My list is: - Firefox - DuckDuckGo - PiHole - FastMail (with CardDAV/CalDAV) - NextCloud 👍👍

That’s a good list. I played with PiHole at one point and had it working on OpenDNS. But I frequently had to turn it off to get important webpages to load. Does it work well for you?

PiHole allows you to manually unblock any domain/page from its admin web UI. These rules take precedence over your configured blocklists. Whenever I stumble upon a broken page, I'll just check the logs, see what was blocked, and unblock it either permanently or temporarily. 😀
