Introducing UnboundBL, a Unbound DNS-based adblocker for OPNsense!

Response from maintainer is a bit slow

Why is it so? Is it because of lacking time and user responses or running into some technical hurdle?

It seems that there is non-trivial user interest in having a Unbound based ad/tracker/malware blocking solution!

Support your local devs, gently remind them of the work that needs to be done <3

Hey!

Yeah, I agree. He is a bit slow. ;)

I've made a PR on github with the latest. Should be ready, if not almost ready, for production!

Working two jobs at the moment, it was simply a problem of time. :(

Hi,

Thanks great work.
Is it planned to release it as official opnsense plugin soon?


Thanks

Apparently work and life is more important!

Good to hear back from you. Do you have plan to integrate pixelserv-tls?

I'm also working on a module for Unbound that will make adblock more flexible and efficient on blocking and resources.

Looks and sounds like a nice plugin!  Looking forward to when it is in the official repo!

very likely dead but you have an alternative in bind and the other dns plugin
