is it good idea to use the host file with Adguard Home ? if yes what link should i use? this : https://github.com/Ultimate-Hosts-Blacklist/Ultimate.Hosts.Blacklist/blob/master/hosts/hosts0

Hi,

host files can be used in Adguard Home, however it is much more efficient for block performance to use the compressed AdBlock format. The compressed version is also much smaller:

Hostfile: 562413 domains AdBlock (compressed): 150741 filters

I create a compressed Adblock version daily from the Ultimate Hosts file, which is welcome to use.

Hi @hagezi , I'm willing to implement such a thing here. Can you please describe what you meant by "compressed" ?

Stay safe and healthy. Nissar

Hi @funilrys, see https://github.com/AdguardTeam/HostlistCompiler#-compress for details.
