Hi @yokoffing

Please consider replace oisd to notracking blocklist.
notracking does not have any major false positives.
oisd after several months using it is for me too liberal with whitelisting
Also developer does not ping Original Maintainers about whitelists issue.
NoTracking have solid base with small amount false positives (if any).
Alongside with 1Hosts (Mini) and small custom whitelists NextDNS works like a charm.
Please note: oisd does not have included Steven Black hosts originals and denied adding them.

I used following whitelists (against some apps issues)

adocean.pl
c.msn.com
cdn-settings.appsflyersdk.com
click.redditmail.com
crashlyticsreports-pa.googleapis.com
google-analytics.com
googleads.g.doubleclick.net

Here's my observations so far:

  • Despite its heavy allowlisting, OISD blocks domains not included in notracking or 1Hosts lists
  • notracking blocks a few domains that are not in 1Hosts (Lite) or OISD (esp. Google crap),
    • but not as much as 1Hosts (Pro) or Lightswitch05
  • notracking blocks a few of the same domains that are in 1Hosts (Pro), but not ones that cause significant breakage;
    • and yet, at the same time, notracking also omits domains that are in all 1Hosts lists and the OISD list

So, it seems to be a good candidate as a tertiary list for the Balanced tier. I've placed it as a third list before, but I've been mulling over whether it's really needed.

OISD allows too much, and yet you use 1Hosts (mini)?

@yokoffing I will try your recommendation (OISD + notracking + 1Hosts (Lite). Regards
