I was pretty specific as to what advantages PiHole has over Ublock alone.
Please re-read the above comment and lmk if I can clarify anything.

Adblockers block ads at the user level, meaning you have to manage the adblocker for each device in your ecosystem.
PiHole and similar DNS based ad blocking technologies OTOH block ads at the network level and only needs one install location to manage content for all devices you have on your network.
This means with PiHole you can have one set of custom rules that block all ads at the network level by using a set of pre-loaded and customizeable DNS blocklists. OR! you can install Ublock on 2 devices in your house and let the other 7 devices that have no access to adblockers (like IoT devices) be subject to the atrocity that is modern advertising.
Additionally, adblockers in browsers can eventually be shut off. See: Google Chrome and Ublock Origin.

Administration has little to do with democracy and everything to do with capitalism.
They have been carving out education dollars to add more administrators over the last 30 years,leading to budgets strained for actual teaching while increasing the amount of bureaucracy.
All this just to ensure the populace doesn’t get too smart and start thinking of implementing new systems like sortition and ranked choice.
Im not sure i agree here. Liquid democracy seems the worst option as people would sell their votes to proxy brokers.
Yeah I’m crying hard lol
Watch me use my tears as lube 🍆💦
Landlords are germs, is that ok for vegans?

Oh no! An aggregator site is aggregating!!! Aahhhhhhhhhh! The horror!!!
Sortition is more subject to bribery after being in office.
How do you figure? The current system is THE bribe system, there’s zero chance sorittion is worse.
Its both, actually. Ublock is client side and only available on Firefox, PiHole is network wide and available for anyone who can setup a simple DNS server.
