Recently i updated my twitch app and noticed that ads are going through blokada. This seems to have happened in the most recent update.
I attempted to try to narrow down where the ads were coming from the incoming block/grant access from blokada but was unable to narrow it down.
I turned on all advanced features perhaps fixing the ads but for some reason it has not.
Any ideas tips? Tricks?
I know twitch is finally starting to hammer down on ads and bypassing them but not sure if they pushed out their greed tactics to mobile app.
Feel free to ask me more questions and i will do my best to provide more information.
your supposed to use only a couple of lists not all, your phone’s memory cannot load all of them. For starters use, OISD, if it fails to block ads, enable 1Hosts. Make sure to clear the app cache in the apps you see ads in.
Nope, i just didnt update the new app, im using
Oisd
Steven black
Adaway
Blacklist
The block list project
hblock
Dan pollock’s hosts
1hosts
D3hosts
One thing to note is when i initial launch twitch it takes about 60s for twitch to load then it works. You have to filter out a little but of stuff but after that im ad free
It’s not supposed to do that. Blokada + is a vpn additionally to blokada Cloud.
And host based adblockers like blokada never guaranteed that twitch ads are blocked. This is due to the ads being sent using the same domain as the content. Blocking the ad connections would lead to blocking of the content. The only solution is https filtering and we actively opted against that
