              @dizzy That means that uAdBlock doesn't work for you ! You take all ads ! You must update uAdBlock.
              First open and deactivate uAdBlock, then choose the lists you want, then update. After that, you must be protected. And you can check again the size of hosts file, probably xx mb !

                    @domubpkm now it works. I don't now if I did something wrong, but it is great to have a adblocker again👍

                      @beli3ver : thank you for all the effort over the years.

                      @domubpkm: does this mean we could share hosts files to do adblocking?

                      Maybe we should check out if we somehow can manage to use tblock on ubports devices.

                          So, new version of uAdBlock server is online, mega performant and doesn't eat resources anymore. In addition, after a new review of the app by Brian, there will be a new version with 4 new lists and fix some bugs.
