Hi, I was wondering, is it useful to use multiple adblockers in a row?
I don’t mean 4 or five 5 browser extensions more like a chain of adblockers, one on every passing network point.
Adblock DNS -> Pi-Hole -> Linux System with hBlock -> Browser with uBlock Origin
I have only a 10 Mbit Internet connection, so I fear that this would slowdown pageloads to much. On the other hand there are filterlists that uBlock can use where as Pi-Hole can’t.
So what combination does make sense (is efficient in every aspect) and what do you use?

An adblock dns, something like nextdns, or others won’t do anything to harm you Internet speed. They are just resolving a dns query, and saying nothing or no to a blocked query.
It can catch what cannot be blocked by an adblockers on the device, because outside of the website or something.
I don’t know about pihole tho.
