Diversion Diversion 5.1.2 - the Router Ad-Blocker, April 21, 2024

[thelonelycoder]

Thank you.
Can you please explain if the NSFW list is made from Big List + NSFW list or is just a separate list that only blocks NSWF content. If that's the case how can I have them both combined? I want to have the functionality of the Standard/Big list + NSFW content blocking.
Would it be a good idea to add to your predefined lists an option for Porn/Adult/Gore content?

Check for yourself, I am not Wikipedia:

b, 1, 2
Add the following:

https://nsfw.oisd.nl/dnsmasq2

Then remove what’s been already there.

Also did this, but with the list provided I cannot block adult websites. I enabled the fs option along the large list and I can also see ads and adult content.
Can you please help me figure out what am I doing wrong?
Thank you.

Edit: I see that now it blocks adult content but I can see ads. Probably it takes a while until fully works.

Do apologise for being annoying, but is not very clear from he's website .. at leas for me.

Read Stephan's reasoning at https://oisd.nl/

He did this a few months back but it ticked off a lot of PiHole users who were relying on Domain/Host blocking lists so he rolled it back (although PiHole then integrated the option of using ABP style blocklists).

They are separate lists.

The Small and Big lists do not include the NSFW list/domains.

Thank you.
Can Small/Big list can be used in conjunction with nsfw lists in Diversion 5 or is just a matter of using one or the other?

I’m not sure - I don’t use Diversion. I assume you can add multiple blocklists.

 

[Amwjujo]

Probably I am doing something wrong as I tried to combine them but is not working. Is only one or the other.

Of course Diversion supports multiple lists. Just add it where I told you to add the nsfw list.

You can use both. You can do it through an SSH terminal:

AMTM>1>b>1>2>1 enter the address of your list(s), then Enter, and then I think you need to select 4 to Enable host list.

You can also do it from the WebUI: LAN, Diversion, lists the Edit custom lists. (For some reason, I’m not being shown the lists right now, and I don’t feel like rebooting, but I’m fairly sure you can do it that way instead of SSH.). Play around; you can’t brick it. At worst you‘ll just need to start over again. It is quite straightforward.

EDIT: I’m now seeing my 2 lists in the WebUI, so enter the address of the list you want to add in the box and press the green button below it. Couldn’t be easier.

I enabled the fs option along the large list and I can also see ads and adult content.

What for? Are we at the state where things are randomly done without understanding why?

Yeah. I think so. I thought that if I enable the fs option it will let me use both.
I did add the list you provided me with where you specified but then I couldn't block ads anymore, just nsfw websites. I then enabled the fs option and choose the large lists. So now at "change composition" I have large/custom but only the large list works now.
I will start over selecting first the blocking list and i will reinsert the list you provided under the custom filed(deleting any other lines that might me there). Do I need to reboot the router after doing these changes or is not the case?
I will keep you guys updated.
Sorry for being such a pain, but I would love to have this working.

No, no need to reboot, just don’t forget to press Enter or Validate depending on how you’re doing it. Then come out and go back in and take comfort when you see your 2 lists there.

Disable fs where you enabled it. Then add the big or small oisd list along with the nsfw list. Make sure to paste the link that ends with dnsmasq2.

Are you saying that under "Customize lists" I should have tehm both large lists + nsfw lists? I have tried to add another line there but it only let me add only one or I just simply don't know how to add a 2nd line with the address for the large list.
This is already starting to get embarrassing as i dragged you all into this discussion and it might be just me not knowing how to do it .. I'd love too though

Edit: Can someone reproduce this scenario for me and maybe post a picture of how it should look like?

 

[nomore4u]

Someone please correct me, but I think the blocked domain count on the Diversion 5.0 main screen counts the last blank line in the file blocklist.conf and file blocklist.fs_conf as a blocked domain. My blocked domain count appears to be one number higher than the list of domains in the primary and secondary blocking lists.

Below the steps to add the second hosts list : https://nsfw.oisd.nl/dnsmasq2

 

[Amwjujo]

Thank you.
Much appreciated.
I think it looks the same with what I currently have, but mine is not blocking adult content, just ads. Does yours block adult?

 

[Tvbaas]

It should block all the extra domains , in total now 612581 ....
