Issue Details

Expected Behavior

List selections and list entries are reasonably up to date.

Actual Behavior

It was brought to my attention this morning that the lists included in Content Blocker are very, very, very outdated, with neither the list selection nor list entries having been updated since November 2019(!).

So unless enormous improvements and very critical maintenance are done to the linked-to-above Git folder within the next 2 weeks, it's time to declare Content Blocker to be a thing of the past, and to tell all users of Content Blocker to transition to AdGuard for Firefox for Android instead, and to actually do marketing and promotions for that particular AdGuard version.

Additional Information

None that I'm currently aware of.

We actually have big plans on this version of AdGuard, just don't have resources to address it quickly. Hopefully, next year you'll finally see the development here.
