What is Reddit's opinion of personalDNSfilter?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Operatornya apa? Kalo bukan Telkomsel, Intra & 1.1.1.1 harusnya bisa (walau saat jalan bilang VPN, mereka cuma capture request DNS lalu rewrite jadi DoT/DoH). Kalau Telkomsel, pasang personalDNSfilter lalu tambahkan hosts file dari bebasid (kalau root langsung tambah aja, g pake aplikasi)

It's a quite interesting project, quite similar to pnsf but with more features and work totally on GUI. Although as a consequence the UI is a bit overwhelmed for me at first.

You could try our free and open source ad- and tracking-blocker personalDNSfilter. No costs, no premium version, highly customizable, many features, for root and non-root ... Just test it and if you got any problems come to our telegram group and get support our check our FAQ and help page.

personalDNSfilter staff here. Did you know that the Java version of personalDNSfilter runs on Windows 10 too? There are easy to use scripts to install it (no GUI), and it runs as good as on Android. You can modify the config with a text editor and tweak everything to your liking. And if you need any help, just join our Telegram group.

Personaldnsfilter is very similar to pihole when filtering on mobile, i always check it after opening apps to see who they phone home too.

It's not something that complicated, I must say. It is an Android app like Blokada or AdGuard, that set up a little VPN in your device. There, you can disable native DNS server discovery and configure whichever DNS you want, enable ad & malware blocking lists and see current network traffic. I like it because I feel it is more lightweight than Blokada or similar apps, and is open source. Sure, it's not comparable to other solutions like uBlock Origin (for example, it doesn't have cosmetic filtering), but it does a decent job.

There are many:

Try these open source apps:

1. Nebulo: https://git.frostnerd.com/PublicAndroidApps/smokescreen#installation

2. RethinkDNS (I develop it): https://rethinkdns.com/downloads

3. PersonalDNSFilter: https://www.zenz-solutions.de/personaldnsfilter-wp/

Try personalDNSfilter. It's slim, minimalistic, just 350KB in app size, ultra low on system resources, totally free and open source, no premium version, no ads, many settings, advanced config, updated and bugfixed frequently, cool community that helps and supports users, available via website, F-Droid and Google Play. https://www.zenz-solutions.de/personaldnsfilter-wp/

https://www.zenz-solutions.de/personaldnsfilter-help/ Here is the help page for settings regarding other VPN apps. And have a look here maybe: https://www.zenz-solutions.de/openvpn-for-personaldnsfilter/

download from here https://www.zenz-solutions.de/personaldnsfilter/

then edit the DNS, this is my personal config

1.1.1.1::443::DOH::https://cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query

make sure to tick "disable DNS server discovery"

then go back and tick "enable blocking" and "autostart"

now tap "restart"

make sure you allow the app to make VPN connection, dont worry it is safe as the DNS filter works using the VPN.

sorry if it is unclear, basically you can mess arround with the configuration, filter blocking, you can also use other server such as opendns, googledns, nextdns, etc.

i tell u once more, this is really useful app. every ads in almost every apps your phone will dissapear. except youtube, i recommend you to use Vanced to enjoy youtube freely.

they have telegram channel if you still confused.

Correct but that's not an app to which I've referred (DNSfilter != PersonalDNSFilter unless they've merged or I've got my names wrong) so I'm not sure why you're telling/downvoting me. I believe it (or a fork) also has OpenDNS integration to mitigate the VPN issue I mentioned.

If its something you think OP should look at let him know as a top-level reply so you know he will see it.

EDIT: I see OP changed his post after my reply to move from DNSfilter to PersonalDNSfilter. That explains why you are talking about a completely different product to me. PersonalDNSFilter hadn't been mentioned when I replied.

Bloquear os trackers, há aplicações para isso

Blockada - https://blokada.org/
personalDNSfilter - https://www.zenz-solutions.de/personaldnsfilter/
TrackerControl - https://github.com/OxfordHCC/tracker-control-android/blob/master/README.md

E claro evitar aplicações com permissões suspeitas, se instalas uma calculadora e pede permissão para aceder a tua localização, câmara, contactos e ler ficheiros do telemóvel, parece um pouco suspeito.

Hi, This is what I use on both my android phone and tablet, it's free and without any ad's. Also it has several nice options/settings available for you to tinker with so you can fine tune it for your needs. https://www.zenz-solutions.de/personaldnsfilter/
