Raspberry Pi launches its IPO (www.raspberrypi.com)

It was nice knowing Raspberry Pi while they lasted. Going to suck losing something that has changed the homegrown embedded system hobby forever.

Was hoping to set up a Pihole soon but now this, ugh! Any other alternatives???

Pi-hole can run on any supported computer+operating system (Linux x64 or ARM based) or in a docker container, you aren't limited to using an actual Pi.

Thanks for the info! Will def check it out! I recently acquired a mid-2014 MacBook Pro & added Ubuntu. Thoughts??

As someone running a pihole off an old radio 2B, your MacBook will be more than sufficient to run what is needed. My only advice would be to get an Ethernet adapter if that model doesn't have one. Losing valid dns queries due to wifi packet loss would be annoying. Beyond that, just google a guide and go, it's super straightforward to set up and manage.
