Question: Can AGH check for duplicate domains? #1402

Closed BobWs closed 4 years ago

BobWs commented 4 years ago

Hi, I was wondering if Adguardhome is checking and removing duplicate domains in the filter section (Filters and hosts blocklists)?

I've been using pihole for a while now and recently switched to adguardhome. Pihole has the built-in possibility to check the filters for duplicate domains and then remove them. This can also be seen in the logfile.

Does AGH also have this possibility? I haven't been able to find anything about it anywhere. I did notice that duplicate domains just occur.

Would you consider building this in?

When the filtering engine is being built from the blocklists, of course, duplicate domain names are ignored.

The source blocklists files are kept intact, though.
