Dedicated section for requests to add new filters and report advertisements on websites.

I don't see anywhere a section or information where to submit requests to add filters or block ads on listed websites.

It would be useful to add support for all filters built into uBlock Origin, because only a part is supported, and they are frequently updated, have a wide range of blocking unwanted things.

In addition, it would be useful to possibly be able to report sites with ads that are not blocked by the default NextDNS filter.

I haven't seen information anywhere on where to do this. Only by the threads requesting the addition of custom filters to the information to report it in the repository on GitHub, but I haven't currently seen a category for reporting such issues there either.

    ublock origin works is web based and filters URLs.   NextDNS is DNS based and filters on FQDNs.    They work very differently and need different lists.   You can use both tools together

       makes sense.

      But it would still be possible to add options to report requests to add new filters (not from uBlock) and to report sites where ads show up despite using NextDNS and filters to block them.

      Look at the last sentence.

      I searched for this, there were topics, but either the answers became outdated or there were no answers at all.

       And that imply nobody cares about it

      Do you mean the NextDNS development team?

      Because from the users' side the questions were and by definition they use this DNS for the most effective ad blocking possible, so they rather care about improving its effectiveness.
