I'm currently (very slowly, in the small gaps between 'life') setting up a site the host the lists and also explains them and their usage. Since it's not ready, it'll be best if I point you to the sources I've aggregated from: https://firebog.net/ https://github.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts https://github.com/jerryn70/GoodbyeAds Link to my in-progress list file hosting: https://lists.uninvitedactivity.com/DNS/ 00_Tiers directory: I've aggregated the lists into four tiers: Base, Recommended, Aggressive, and Paranoid. And I've got two sets of these, one that includes Newly Registered Domains (Full directory), and one that doesn't include NRDs (NoNRD directory, because NRDs are ... heavy: Paranoid list with NRDs: 9.1 million records, without NRDs: 3.7 million records). 11_Allow directory: A bunch of allow li

sts sourced from: https://discourse.pi-hole.net/t/commonly-whitelisted-domains.... I also use this list for an Allow list: https://github.com/anudeepND/whitelist 21_SpecificTopics directory: Aggregation of lists under the topic that matches the file name. Fake News list needs to be updated as it contains a _way_ overbroad list that I need to remove from the aggregation.

A lot of these list maintainers put a lot of work into not breaking things, but their are just too many websites out their to know if a block breaks one of them or not. Send the list maintainer an email - or if they are on Github/Gitlab open a ticket and have a discussion. I think you'll find many of them are happy to remove breaking domains. Of course whitelist is always an option too if the list maintainer disagrees with the removal of a domain. Also, there is a popular whitelist project for the Pi-Hole that can make it more user friendly: https://github.com/anudeepND/whitelist
