Like the pihole
Been trying pfblockerNG, but pulled down all of my network

Pihole 10.10.10.250

Pfblocker Virtual IP ????

I used to run a pihole but I replaced it with pfB. Basic functionality is simple to configure via the wizard. Both Netgate and Lawrence Systems have excellent YouTube video tutorials on getting it running.

I do not have squid/squidguard, but do have proxhttps proxy/privoxy and pihole. It works great though a bit slower then with only pihole involved.
Pihole with unbound and cloudflared is really fast. The advantage with privoxy is that you can tweak a bit better then with only dns based blocking.

Could i use both Pfblocker and The Pihole

I don't really see the point. They essentially do the same job. They even use some of the same blacklists.

I just learned. . .
Squid can be forced to lock down to a specified dns

dns_nameservers "PI-hole dns ip address"
