12. When I run into one of those (rare) sites that won't load...

I usually just go to the Pi-Hole admin panel and disable Pi-Hole for short time, then load the site. I really like the 'timed' disable - it lets you see if it's really Pi-Hole that's stopping something, and goes back to its usual state after the predetermined time without any further action on my part. The preset times are 10 and 30 seconds, and 5 minutes, and then a user-determined time. Really helpful feature for the rare times we need to figure out why something won't load.
