Sadly for the AdGuard team, there isn't much of an audience for this. It's one of those things everyone says they want but few people will actually install one, much less maintain one over time. Add to that the wife-forced uninstalls and the total long-term audience for this is (no kidding) in the thousands.

My spouse’s device is on a pihole exclusion list. Can you not do this with AdGuard?

What is the reason for someone in the network to not want the filtering? Does this break some websites?

My own devices are covered, I definitely want full filtering even when not at home and my devices are completely hackable, but I'm wondering if such a tool would be a convenience for other people using the network in particular with less hackable devices, and people likely to use my network are likely totally uninterested in ads, but I don't want this to be a pain.

Yes, you can definitely use it selectively.

I don't get this comment. It is basically the same kind of tool as the Pihole only much easier to install and maintain. (It's a single go binary) Isn't this a popular class of software?

[nickthegreek]

It is not a popular class of software to the masses, it is a popular class of software to a niche audience. I don't share as pessimistic attitude as OP though. I'm pretty sure the audience is in the tens of thousands!

I guess I'm the exception to the rule, I spent a fair chunk of my previous weekend upgrading the hardware on my opnsense router/firewall so that I could virtualize opnsense and be able to glom on related services exactly like AdGuard Home easily.
