Please remove the "Goodbye Ads" list from recommended blocklists

The owner of "Goodbye Ads" has been adding entire root domains for legitimate sites to their list because they're too lazy or dumb to block ad-serving subdomains. According to a brief glance at their GitHub issue page, this is a very common complaint and the two that I noticed immediately are AOL and Yahoo. ALL of AOL and Yahoo, not just ads; news, finance, business, email, everything is blocked. They should now count as a malicious actor and clearly does not value the type of protection that NextDNS prides itself on. It is complete trash and needs to go. Please remove this from the suggested list; you should NOT be endorsing such a broken list. 17 of my 23 Allowlist entries are just overriding basic sites blocked by Goodbye Ads, and NONE of them are malicious. Please fix this so that they can't screw up anyone else and so it doesn't look like NextDNS supports full internet censorship at the hands of a single individual.

    You are only dumb here

    Don't add it if you don't like it

    No one is forcing you to use it
