Feedback: Perhaps add info about Pi-Hole usage.

Shouldn't just adding the URL[0] work?

I had 1,217,258 blocked domains on my Pi-Hole to begin with, and this added 515,284 new domains.

Yes, I have seen a rough add of ~500K domains indeed.

Had to whitelist api.instabug.com since with it blocked my 9GAG app goes crazy and tries to connect to it non-stop, lighting my phone on fire.

I'm surprised to see that there is any overlap between 9GAG and HN :)

Next you'll tell me you are surprised that a 9gag and an HN regular gets laid! ;)

In all seriousness, I casually browse it for 30-40 minutes a day. Helps put my mind at ease here and there (although it too became heavily politicized and not as much fun as it was years ago).

You leave him alone, he is a renowned Field Marshal, though as OP, also known to suck a lot of #!@%

P.S. 9gag in-joke, you wouldn't get it.

I went from 2.039 million to 2.043 million, so about 5,000 new domains.

Yes just login to the web interface go to group management and add that url - just done that on my pi hole running on a Model B Rev 2

Yep, just did the same. Thanks for confirming that it also works for you.

I was asking the same and then looked at my pihole and came to the same conclusion.
