    If you mean Fanboy instead of fanfoy that won’t work with NextDNS: that list is an ad blocker list that contains much more than just domain names to block annoyances.

      Mohamad obeid Maybe you misunderstood?

      A DNS service can only filter on domain names; not on other parts of a URL, which most of these lists do.

    It is important to remember that a DNS blocking service such as NextDNS can NOT perform cosmetic filtering of webpages. 

    You will need a good browser extension which can perform cosmetic filtering of webpages.

    uBlock Origin is an excellent browser extension it can block Scripts, Frames, pop ups and perform cosmetic removal of obnoxious webpage elements that annoy you.

    uBlock Origin is a very powerful extension. It has a steeper learning curve, But it is worth taking the time to learn all you can about its advanced capabilities.

    Think of NextDNS as a first your step in blocking the nasty crap, with the right Block Lists it can broadly block the ad servers, malware spreading domains, disreputable websites and helps to keep you safer on the internet as you are simply not connecting to those malicious websites.

    If you have children the right selection of Block Lists can keep them away from porn, gambling, illegal drug websites and websites operated by known violent hate filled bigots as well as many others.

    Make sure that you have a very, very strong password that your children will never guess and DO NOT EVER MAKE A RECORD OF IT This is needed to protect your NextDNS configuration settings and to prevent them disabling it.
