Which would you rather, hosts or domains when adding blocklists #7

Question. Does it make a difference to you between hosts and domains when adding blocklists to dnswarden. I know with rethinkdns, it doesn’t but I wanted to know here.

It doesn't matter, it can handle both. Domains lists are smaller in size when compared to hosts list, so it takes lesser time to download and update the lists 😬

Ok, that’s the answer I would have thought. Could I make a pull request to switch some big blocklists like hagezi over to domains?

Sure!
