dns-blocklists VS hblock

Hagezi blocklists are the current standard now: https://github.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists

You could go for one of the Lite blocklists for the network wide, family friendly (non-breaking) list.

Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to use Hagezi lists within Firewalla natively? Both block and allow? https://github.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists

You can create an Allowlist Request in Hagezi's Github. He usually pings the maintainers as well so that they can remove it too.

As far as lists go, its extremely subjective. Definitely look into the Hagezi lists and yokoffing's configuration guide, I'd recommend Multi Pro++ for most people. Most other blocklists are redundant with that one.

that’s overkill IMO. you can find a more detailed rationale here.

I'm talking something like hblock (https://hblock.molinero.dev/) which is for host blocking malceous+ other websites. Imagine blocking every single address manually. To get a picture how impossible it be here is the sample hosts file (https://hblock.molinero.dev/hosts) just do line count and you will understand.

they will never block open source world! For Linux: https://github.com/hectorm/hblock For Linux/Win/Android https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts

A quick and dirty solution is just using something likehBlock, that will block most unnecessary traffic (malware from Google, Meta, Microsoft, and generic advertising companies, etc.)

I just came across this tool hblock that seems simpler to install and run.

An Australian got an error with their postal tracking app, compare Hagezi's "OK we'll whitelist it so your app doesn't break" vs hblock's "Meh, go report to the source list maintainer".

If you want systemwide block you may look hblock

Yeah, definitely going to skip that list. Compare how Hagezi and hblock deal with the exact same issue, still not going to adopt it because the hype turns me off, but at least I prefer "ok, we make sure the site you visit doesn't break" compared to dismissive "oh it's a tracker so it's your fault".
