 Next, install Pi-hole and choose `tun0` as the interface and `10.8.0.1/24` as the IP address. You can accept the rest of the defaults, or configure Pi-hole to your liking. The interface selection is the most important step; if you don't choose `tun0` (at least to begin with), it will not work properly.
