Not sure how relevant it is but it is a Russian company, I believe. Take from that what you will.
This is my main reason for not using them. I have two Pihole servers running gravity sync, unbound and wireguard on each and VPN my phone back home for self hosted DNS resolution and ad blocking.
+1 for pihole! Stupid easy for linux geeks to setup and maintain, but probably a pretty hard sell for the more general public. A cloud service like NextDNS might be more appropriate for average Joes. I can't speak to AdGuard since I don't use it, but I know that name gets mentioned frequently in privacy circles - favorably, I think...
You can easily get pihole running on anything these days.
