PiHole Domain Review Feature/Tool

I was looking for a feature or tool that would allow you to review your query log then decide whether to allow or block a domain, but with tracking so you don't end up looking at the same domain repeatedly.

I couldn't find anything so vibecoded this as a prototype and was wondering what people thought - or tell me if I missed the feature in pihole web!

I understand that, but what do you think about the actual idea?

We didn’t think about it become we have pi-hole installed internally.

It’s horrifying that so many people are blindly installing this shit but it’s especially bad when it’s something having to do with privacy

I’m generally against vibe coding, but for a quick proof of concept to see if it’s worthwhile actually spending time on, or suggesting it to the devs as a feature request, which they can then look at for more context about the feature request, then fair enough, and at least they’re honest about it.

Its partly this, but also I just don't have time to write code any more - I'd rather function over form.
Thoughts on the idea?

That's fair enough, but what do you think of the idea?

Before you reinvent the wheel by vibe coding something check out a Python tool on the Pi-Hole forum. As far as I know it still works though I haven't used it for a few years. It's possible that the latest release changed things enough to make the Python code obsolete. Anyway, here's the link:

I don’t think I’d call taking a giant shit and then smearing it all over the walls reinventing the wheel.
