Can't add DNS block list

[LewisLebentz]

I tried to add this block list:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EnergizedProtection/block/master/bluGo/formats/filter

To block more domains via DNS, however once added to the app, it treats the list like a normal adblock list (blocking HTTP GET). Is there something special I can do to make Android treat it as a DNS block list? The existing DNS filter you provide is formatted in the same way:

https://filters.adtidy.org/extension/chromium/filters/15.txt

They provide block lists in other formats here: https://github.com/AdroitAdorKhan/Energized none seem to work. I'd expect the plain domains list to work for DNS, but no joy.

The only thing that does seem to block DNS requests is if you click a DNS request from the log file, then choose to block it from there.

The feature of importing filters / hosts files for DNS filtering is not ready yet before new CoreLibs with DNS module is released.

That list which you imported would only work for HTTPS filtering, not for DNS filtering.

This is only a question, not a feature request.

If you mean a feature request, here it is.
In the past, other users already did the same feature request.
#1851

Importing filters (basic adblock rule syntax) / hosts files for DNS filtering is in plan.

The article is duplication and can be closed.

like @lancelot-moon said if you add something in user filter it will work like a regular filter, not on DNS level.
closed as dub of #1851
