From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

DNS blocking with DNS over TLS (DoT) with OpenBSD unwind + disabling javascript
- userscripts where javascript is required and the site is cancer (youtube, twitch, other corpomedia)
- disable/compile without DNS over HTTPS (DoH)
- I'm not sending my DNS requests to cloudflare, and I want my DNS to be system-wide
always disable DNS prefetch
works in any browser (system-wide actually), not just in Firefox/Chromium
A contrarian take, but nextdns. It may not block youtube ads, but eeeh it works really well for most cases.
