Periodic DNS queries for fedoraproject.org

 A while back I decided to install Fedora in my old Laptop Gateway M-6806m and used it to test random things like Grafana, Docker, etc.

 

In the last weeks pi-hole was installed to test it as a docker container instead of the installation done in my Raspeberry Pi 2 Model B, for that I used instead the Gateway laptop.

 

So, it was really strange to see "fedoraproject.org" in the pi-hole section "Top Permited Domains"

Ater a fast search with qwant.com found the answer in Reddit with the same question so, I'm keeping a copy of the answer here for my self (and you) 'cause I don't see the point to keep "asking" the DNS sever about that domain name even when I randomly use this laptop.

Question: How to stop periodic DNS queries for fedoraproject.org

Was just looking at DNS logs while nothing is running. Constant DNS queries for fedoraproject.org without anything running.
