StevenBlack blocklist for diversion

[ryosuke]

hello,

how do i use stevenblack blocklist for diversion? anyone knows?

It’s not a good choice anymore for the way Diversion and dnsmasq optimize memory. There would be many duplicate entries with stevenblack.

Actually the Steve Black block list has bee trimmed to a much smaller size recently. Adding it is not too hard. Use the Diversion GUI and delete the existing blocklist and paste the URL to the Steve Black blocklist in its place then save and activate.

There are better lists with better formats for Diversion. This is the kind of duplicates I'm talking about:

0.0.0.0 amarktflow.com
0.0.0.0 www.amarktflow.com

0.0.0.0 annualconsumersurvey.com
0.0.0.0 www.annualconsumersurvey.com

0.0.0.0 api.axiatraders.com
0.0.0.0 www.api.axiatraders.com

All these extra www entries are not optimized for the way Diversion works today.

i see.. alright. then i will opt it out for now. just wanted to know how can i add it into diversion only since when i add it into diversion using the url, it says it is compatible but not optimal for diversion. so was thinking how can i convert it to dnsmasq

The lists on oisd.nl are appropriate, as are many of the Hagezi lists:

dns-blocklists/README.md at main · hagezi/dns-blocklists

DNS-Blocklists: For a better internet - keep the internet clean! - hagezi/dns-blocklists

github.com

I use Hagezi Light and don’t think twice about it.

Here are the generally recommended Diversion blocklists.
There is a lot of overlap between the first and second list. It would be OK to use just one of the two. If you use both, Diversion will handle removal of duplicates from the consolidated list.
The third list is late breaking security blocks. I have not had any false alerts from it.
If the total number of entries is an issue, there are stripped down versions as mentioned above.
