So I reinstalled everything and the latest pihole just came with one adlist, about 250K entries.

I mostly just want to make sure we’re blocking adware and trackers but malware, crypto nonsense, etc… would be good too.

Thanks for suggestions.

      Thanks buy i’m not really clear what this means:

      If you’re not using remote lists like the ones mentioned above then this script will be useless to you - Pi-hole already updates the lists weekly automatically.

      Aren’t all lists remote lists?

        I read it as the tool helps maintain a dynamic list of adlists, it will help add and remove lists based on the configuration whereas if you just add a bunch of adlists yourself (like in the gui), pihole will monitor them for domain updates weekly but it’s always the same set of adlists.

          Ohhhhhhhhh, I see. Thanks!

          I’m definitely going to keep it simple, add a few lists manually now and then leave it alone.

            That’s how I started as well. You can always change it up later and whitelist/blacklist domains manually as you go.
