Hi,

host files can be used in Adguard Home, however it is much more efficient for block performance to use the compressed AdBlock format. The compressed version is also much smaller:

Hostfile: 562413 domains
AdBlock (compressed): 150741 filters

I create a compressed Adblock version daily from the Ultimate Hosts file, which is welcome to use.

Hi @hagezi , I'm willing to implement such a thing here. Can you please describe what you meant by "compressed" ?

Stay safe and healthy.
