What's your idea?

This project would greatly benefit from the creation of whitelists for widely used services like Whatsapp, Facebook, and potentially YouTube. While it's recognized that these services collect data, many people rely on them for socializing and work purposes. By offering a whitelist option, we can cater to a broader audience, including those who wish to use this blocklist but need these services. A separate whitelist for popular platforms could encourage more people to try this solution.

I'll chalk this up to being what #115 seeks to accomplish.

In the meantime, you can use Tranco as a whitelist on the domains list to allow popular services like those you've mentioned.

After thinking more about this, I can see where you're coming from. Rather than upload one whitelist for common web services, I'll create a separate field in the manifest for user definitions, where users can specify a service they'd like to whitelist and common domains associated with them. Then I'll create individual whitelists sent in dist that can be used in PiHole or other services so people can pick and choose their preference.

I believe @hagezi could be of assistance in this endeavor.
