Hi all,
I am just about to replace pfSense in our datacenter environment and office spaces after a happy 6 years with OPNSense after about 6 months of testing.
I have done a fair bit of googling RE running a DNS blackhole / banlist on OPNSense to replicate the functionality of something like PiHole or pfBlockerNG. However I can't seem to find an officially support package that does it.
I am looking to use the default Unbound as the local DNS Forwarder so would prefer to be able to use that as a DNS black hole for ad blocking.
Any progress?
In stable only via bind or dnscrypt plugin

Ok, obviously this is in development, as and when it's considered stable, will it be available via the GUI package manager, and updated via the package manager as well?

Yes, but maybe with 20.1 or so, maybe it will go into core directly

That's good to hear. I have been using pfSense professionally for over 6 years and have been testing OPNSense for the last 6 months as my penned replacement, I am just researching and making sure there is longevity in OPNSense as a platform.
