Which is better for a system that supports the wildcard format? #54

I was wondering if the Blokada version is just as good as the host.txt version but with a smaller file size, fewer entries and wildcard support or if the full version covers more grounds

I am interested in this topic too. For Android, I found only Blokada app (and described about it here). One can use NextDNS for any system, but the free version is unusable - query limit is far too low. There are several different tools, but they don't support wildcards.

Or did I understand the question wrong? Blokada hosts and full hosts are making from the same set of sources, and they differentiate only with format (and compiling date - Blokada is usually slightly newer)

that answered my question perfectly. Thanks

rdns dev here

Nebulo supports wildcards from what I recall. In my experience, it had been more stable than Blokada, so that's what I used, and still recommend.

@ignoramous, thanks for the tip. I updated docs, that's interesting.
