PiHole doesn’t work with VPNs, does it?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago

Yes, its a DNS server. You can set up your device to use whatever DNS server you choose, including pihole.

I've got my VPN connected with pihole as the default DNS server so it works on my phone when I'm not at home.

Yep it does, most VPN software lets you configure the DNS server to be your pihole.

If you care about the privacy of your DNS requests, tunnel the pihole through a VPN too

No because VPNs route your traffic through an encrypted tunnel. But PiHole can filter traffic on any device on your network regardless of whether or not you can install a plugin.
