I am old skool, I just turn the monitor off. Blocks 100 percent of the ads when I don't want to see them.

Although, AdGuardHome seems to be doing pretty good. I am going for a 90 day stretch:

I'm at 90% blocked with AGH just by using:

1. Adguard DNS filter
2. Adaway Default Blocklist

Not bad at all

This is mine, with only the filters, and regex I listed in previous post.

Can anyone recommend a list that just blocks ads, not bothered about anything else, just ads?

Thanks

Thanks, I'll give it a go.

That’s the Large selection in b, 1. The best choice in my opinion.
