From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If you can, set this up on your router and then specify which devices should route through.
You may also want to use pihole for ad blogging and as your DNS server. and in pihole use your VPN server's DNS such that you don't have DNS leak.
And if the VPN is down, your computer won't work until it comes back up.
Helpful if you run the network at your house
