Configuring Split Horizon DNS with Pi-Hole and Tailscale

Tailscale builds a mesh network using Wireguard protocol and so is able to connect and run quite a bit faster than OpenVPN. Side note: for those wondering, Tailscale is Canadian and can't see the content of connections (although if you're worried about this it's also possible to self-host using Headscale).
