Allowlist still being counted in requests

Allowlists merely means "even if it's listed in a filter I enable, allow it to resolve", anything that reaches NextDNS still counts towards your monthly limit, except for a group of queries with different record types but against the same domain (browser do this if they want to try both IPv4 & IPv6 and check for available extensions) which is counted as one query for the limit purpose (they *still* show up as individual entries in the Analytics tab.

It *might* help reduce the amount of requests if the device/app behavior when blocked is to query again and again, but ultimately they still counts. Also FYI, the analytics tab is not the number used for your monthly usage, go to your account tab to get the actual number.

If you've enabled Cache Boost (it increase the TTL in the hope that compliant client won't keep asking and asking in short period) and Block Page (some app/device treat a non-null IP differently than null-IP, NextDNS answer with null IP for blocked request unless Block Page is enabled) but still cross the free threshold, then just subscribe.
