Problem solved. Mullvad wasn’t being used so I switched to Quad9 and it blocks ads.


Let me clarify, Mullvad is in the first slot, second slot is empty. A few ads get through. I put adguard in the second slot, no ads get through. Is there any way I can check if Mullvad is still active or could I just put adguards block list in my Netguard hosts file and just use Mullvad.


DNS through Netguard
I've been using adguards free DNS to eliminate adds and recently switched to Mullvads add free DNS. Mullvad lets through a few ads adguad catches but stops many other things. Since Netguard has 2 slots for DNS, I put them both. Is that a problem, or do I have the best of both worlds?

This is slightly slower than KISS. Too bad it doesn’t support widgets.

Is this a good idea for privacy?

Not exactly. TC added the ability to block trackers. NG can easily do that by using a hosts file. I used to use the file by OSID but the Hagezi files https://github.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists#readme Are much better.
