KADHosts

[antek821]

Could you please add the KADHosts list: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FiltersHeroes/KADhosts/master/KADhosts.txt (homepage: https://github.com/FiltersHeroes/KADhosts)

which is the hosts version of the list: https://github.com/AdguardTeam/FiltersRegistry/tree/master/filters/ThirdParty/filter_232_KADPrzekrety

At a surface glance, the list seems considerably better than "Polish filters for Pi hole", so I vote in favour of adding it.

BTW: List is in https://github.com/AdguardTeam/HostlistsRegistry/issues/43

considerably better than "Polish filters for Pi hole", so I vote in favour of adding it.

But blocked different content:

• KAD - phishing, malware, scam/fraud domains
• Polish filters for Pi hole - ads/tracking servers

So repo needed use both:

Sorry for the late reply.

Here's what we need to add it:

1. Title (KADHosts?)
2. Very short list description in English

[krystian3w]

IMO possible copy description from FiltersRegistry:

https://github.com/AdguardTeam/FiltersRegistry/blob/master/filters/ThirdParty/filter_232_KADPrzekrety/metadata.json (is really short).

That is origin source and converted to hosts on own environment.

Also Possible consider join with specific regexes for Pi-Hole (a separate file due to the limitations of pi-hole and standard DNS services):

https://github.com/FiltersHeroes/KADhosts/raw/master/KADhole.txt (few manually added to file = mainly for blocking domains that use some kind of repeating pattern / enforce block subdomains in bad scenarios)

If regex is out of scope then no needed is combine files.

Or always convert origin file by AdGuard environment (but this shouldn't touch $third-party and $popup = the main sins of NextDNS when converting EasyList), in the future it might be better e.g. dns will support regexes or even paths (so more than hosts and pi-hole).

[antek821]

The title I think might just be: KADHosts (Or KADHole if you decide to follow the suggestions in the previous message)

Description as @krystian3w wrote above

[ameshkov]

Both AdGuard DNS and AdGuard Home support regular expressions, but we prefer traditional ad blocking syntax: https://adguard-dns.io/kb/general/dns-filtering-syntax/#regular-expressions

@krystian3w would it be possible to compile a file with additional regular expressions with the syntax AG products understand?

[krystian3w]

I think possible, but I suppose most exists in origin file https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FiltersHeroes/KAD/master/KAD.txt, written for uBo and standard AdGuard extension/apps (strict block wall stylized like anti malware warning).

A few uses wildcard ABP syntax (with automatic translation to Pi-Hole regex syntax - due lack of documentation about support now wildcards).

Then to check are:

• his compatible regex syntax (when they are not overkilled e.g. limited with domain= to better performance rest of pages on the Internet or not compatible with enforced RE2 like form manifest V3 (DNR)) and
• support block subdomains when main page is blocked by AdGuard Home (I don't see this in table compare why is better than Pi-Hole) (DNS should block subdomains too and for me a little better to checking).

[ameshkov]

Wouldn't it be easier to simply use https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FiltersHeroes/KAD/master/KAD.txt as a source for KADHosts here?

[ameshkov]

Alternatively, to make it more "manageable", can we request adding an AdGuard Home version of KADHosts that uses DNS filtering syntax? The list that you linked is okay, but AdGuard Home / AdGuard DNS do not support $all modifier, it needs to be stripped to make it fully compatible.
