Installing Pi-Hole
-
Pi-Hole is pretty easy to install. I recommend Ubuntu Linux. Get the latest (that is Ubuntu 18.10 currently) and do a normal, minimal install. Nothing fancy, select nothing extra. Just the leanest server possible.
Once installed, log in as root and run this command...
curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | bash
That's it, you are done!

Debian would be better. But meh, personal preferences.
If you have a Raspberry Pi, that of course works.
It will install on Fedora, but there are many unresolved issues with SELinux.

Ubuntu? Ewe. I'm with @JaredBusch, Debian is just better.

Add sqlite to it too.
pihole flush
and the flush logs button on the web ui doesn't work without sqlite installed. -
I've run Pi-Hole in Docker, now I have it on Raspbian on Rpi 3+, I might deploy it inside Docker Swarm on my Rpi cluster at some point. I'm also trying out alternative, Adguard Home, on Rpi too, although installation is not as straightforward as Pi-Hole.
