Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Radicle: Open-Source, Peer-to-Peer, GitHub Alternative
This is an overreaction, almost to the point of absurdity.
Risks inherent to pipe installers are well understood by many. Using your logic, we should abandon Homebrew [1] (>38k stars on GitHub), PiHole [2] (>46k stars on GitHub), Chef [3], RVM [4], and countless other open source projects that use one-step automated installers (by piping to bash).
A more reasonable response would be to coordinate with the developers to update the docs to provide alternative installation methods, rather than throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Runs on your OpenWrt box: AdGuard Home is network-wide blocking ads and tracking
I ran a competing project[0] on my home network for a few years before I discovered NextDNS[1]. What I lost in performance (requests don't leave my house) I gained in portability: ALL my devices can take advantage – at home and away – and time-saved. PiHole works 90% of the time, but when it did stop working, I'd have to spend a bit of time fixing it. At $20/year, I simply couldn't compete with NextDNS.
Note: This isn't a shill for NextDNS; I love these kinds of projects and think they absolutely should exist, but NextDNS just happens to be one of those dead-simple SaaS tools that is an insanely good value.

Higher fees, more ads: streaming cashes in by using the old tactics of cable TV
It definitely IS an option, but at the network level.
https://pi-hole.net/
It runs on damn near everything, and is a DNS level adblocker for the whole network.

In 2024, please switch to Firefox
I recently switched to Wipr [0]. It’s dead simple to use, and will auto update its filter lists in the background.
Adguard [1] is a decent free option.
I also use a Pi-hole [2] on my network.

Overwhelmed by a project
Are you trying to build a DNS proxy (similar to Pi-hole) that intercepts DNS requests and checks for the ones that look harmful? If so, I would suggest trying to separately build a DNS client and a DNS server, before trying to integrate them together. Start with Beej's Guide to Network Programming if you need to learn the basics of sockets, and then take a look at the documents that define the DNS protocol itself (RFC1034 and RFC1035).

Is there an Android app that blocks the ads on games?
It's definitely not as simple as installing an app on your phone, but I run a Pi-hole on my home network, and it does block ads in many games.

Important Update: Changes to Blocklist Syntax Support
There are wrappers for updating regex lists that can be modified with other URLs. This was floating around for a while: https://github.com/mmotti/pihole-regex/blob/master/install.py and this is another method: https://www.bentasker.co.uk/posts/documentation/general/refreshing-piholes-regex-block-list-from-external-sources.html With enough regex tweaking I bet you could shave at least tens of thousands of lines off your list, and it could be divided into regex entries for domains where it makes sense, with the rest being non-regex domain entries. Simple regex that is functionally equivalent to AdBlock style wildcard blocks won't notably bog down the system either. It might take a few hours to get a workflow going to streamline producing such a list, but it can be done.

Potential problem: Trouble with Pi-hole blocking ads etc
I also have a bunch of RegEx blacklisted from this pihole-regex/regex.list at master · mmotti/pihole-regex · GitHub and these:

Looking for a decent blocklist
Here's a list of domains I've used for years. All of which have been collected from different websites and sources such as https://firebog.net/ and https://github.com/mmotti/pihole-regex.

Chrome says that they're no longer allowing ad-blocker extensions to work starting in January
I also suggest these regex blocks

Any simple/conservative lists that just block ads, not trackers that might break mobile apps and web sites?
Your mileage may vary, but a combination of the default pi-hole list, the firebog.net lists (green, checkmark lists only), and the https://github.com/mmotti/pihole-regex/blob/master/regex.list do a pretty complete job for me.

Pi-hole not blocking a good amount of ads
While not perfect, and does not directly address the YouTube ads, I can suggest setting up mmotti's Regex Filters for Pi-hole.
- Corrupted pihole died and it used to block advertisements for other shows on HBO Max. New pihole installation does not. What list/regex entry blocks HBO Max ads?
- Ist there a way to block a URL other than the host file?
-
What regex entries do you use? The regex megathread is several years old at this point and I was unsure if there are any new ones to add.
I did also find these as well: https://github.com/mmotti/pihole-regex/blob/master/regex.list
