Do you know what you had to block to stop the Roku ads?
It came free with one of the standardized block lists. Let me go see what my pi hole is blocking.
I can't tell exactly what it's nixing without rebooting it and there's somebody watching it right now.
Here are the obvious candidates from the Stephen Black block list
P.ads.roku.com
Austin.logs.roku.com
Mobile.logs.roku.com
Scribe.logs.roku.com
logs.Roku.com
Interesting. I'm using nextdns on my router, I had manually blocked ads.roku.com and now have the Stephen Black block list enabled too but I'm still getting ads.
Now that I look through my nextdns logs, I don't see my roku at all so something seems to be up with my config. Thanks for the help!
If you can't get it straightened out Hit me up again here and I'll restart my Roku and see if I can figure out what else it's hitting
