The Blocklist Project VS dnstwist

This one is good, very few false positives: https://github.com/blocklistproject/Lists/blob/master/porn.txt

Here's a good starting list of TikTok hosts, of which overlaps a few of ByteDance's domains: https://github.com/blocklistproject/Lists/blob/master/tiktok...

For the past few years I've just used the standard StevenBlack one that is enabled by default when you setup PiHole, and it covers the large majority of ads. The only ads I still see are on YouTube and Twitch, and as far as I know those can't be blocked with a DNS sinkhole since the ads are served from the same domain as the content. The lists on that site seem like they let you block a bunch of other stuff, not necessarily ads, but domains related to gambling, crypto, TikTok etc. That's a bit different.

There are lots of great sources for block lists. I used some site a long time ago that helped you build a custom list. I cant find the link but still lots of good sources like : https://github.com/blocklistproject/Lists

do check out: blocklist project Homepage: https://blocklist.site

i using one off these: https://github.com/blocklistproject/Lists/blob/master/tiktok.txt

I recently stumbled upon 2 cool domain permutation tools: HIBS & dnstwist

https://dnstwist.it/ - check your domain now

You can hunt down evil twin domains with https://dnstwist.it/

I periodically run dnstwist and add whatever it finds to our block list.

Pi-hole (with every reasonable blocklist I can find) protects me from many of these domains. NextDNS would be another option for DNS-based blocking for people who don't want to administer it themselves. I also plan to use DNSTwist to generate additional blocklists for typo-based phishing that I can plug into the Pi-hole for important sites.
