Seems a little weird and highly inefficient to separate them like that, especially use of IPs etc.

Why not just have one large instance?

Wouldn't different people want different things on their whitelist/blacklist? AFAIK Pi-hole doesn't offer a way to do that.

That's exactly right. Everyone gets their own white/blacklist, control over logging, etc. And how would you end a subscription if the IP still existed with the software?
