New #Acer #ChromeBook. Can't seem to install @fdroid to get personalDNSFilter installed.

Is there a chrome-book equivlent for easily managing a DNS block list, on device?

Yes, I can run something on my home netwok, but what I'm looking for is an easy, on-device solution, like installing a "local vpn" like #personalDNSFilter does on my phone, into which I can put my own block list, and easily add and remove entries.

Browser extensions not enough, want to intercept all IP.

@pseudonym @fdroid If it's an Intel, reload with Linux (Ubuntu 22 works, or Debian 12) and load pihole.

@ai6yr @fdroid

Thanks. AMD, and not looking to reload OS at this point.

@pseudonym @fdroid Linux on Acer Chromebook is far more powerful than Google Chrome (especially the Chromebooks I have played with, which are *well* past their "expire date" and won't update).
