EDIT: Thanks so much guys! This was really helpful, and I didn’t imagine so many would help out!

Hey guys,

I’ve used PiHole for over a year now, and I really like it. I use it with WireGuard, so I always have my DNS blocker with me.

But I’ve wondered if I even have some good lists? I used some standard lists from a reddit thread when I set up my PiHole, and I’ve never looked at it since.

So what blocklists do you use? Something you can recommend?

Also, if you use Blocky or AdGuard, do you find it better than PiHole?

Something to keep in mind:

Avoid using mirrored consolidated lists, if possible; it deprives the original list maintainer of visits (meaning they may be less inclined to keep it up to date!) https://firebog.net/
