Just installed pihole - Which adlists are you using? (lemm.ee)

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.

I’ve gone down this road. Be careful. If it’s critical to your household that the internet works, your best bet is the standard list included.

With a dozen or more additional lists, I ended up spending a lot of time with the pihole totally disabled when something was getting blocked that shouldn’t be, and then more time tinkering trying to figure out what to whitelist.
