• Ask HN: Which tools are the best for internet safety for kids?

  I've tried hosted Pi-Hole and AdGuard Home. They are good as long as I'm around to fix stuffs. Then I tested something which can be global (home) and also for individual devices -- Control-D, NextDNS, and Adguard DNS. All of them works pretty well. If I really have to choose, then it would be in the order of NextDNS > Control-D > AdGuard DNS. Affiliated with none, and have decided to subscribe to all three to... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: Which tools are the best for internet safety for kids?

  I really like NextDNS. It's very cheap ($1.99/mo) and has an app (macOS/Windows/iOS/Android) that provides filtering/monitoring on the go, even when they aren't at home. https://nextdns.io. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Runs on your OpenWrt box: AdGuard Home is network-wide blocking ads and tracking

• Runs on your OpenWrt box: AdGuard Home is network-wide blocking ads and tracking

They are all actually pretty good, similar features, and it has become just a matter of personal choice. In all fairness, when I have some time and can invest in decent hardwares, I might go back to AdGuard Home with one of the paid services as backup for travel, and when for the other family... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Should i change the rom?

  I've had my note20 ultra since 2021 and it was great, the phone still works nicely and fast, but now that Samsung stopped giving the big updates, should I install a custom rom?

• Any way to get security update for old pixel phones?

  If you're familiar with the Pixel launcher and overall experience, I'd recommend you have a look at the custom ROM Pixel Experience. It's almost a 1:1 copy of what you get on latest Pixels. Source: about 1 year ago

• Pixel users report the Google app is making their phones overheat - Rolling back to an older version of the software doesn't seem to help.

  Https://get.pixelexperience.org/ There are also other options available, like GrapheneOS and LineageOS. There's a few reviews and such on YouTube. I'm looking into at the minute. Never installed a custom ROM before but it doesn't look to daunting, after a bit of research. Source: about 1 year ago
