What's going on?
Numerous problems with all Energized lists. Youtube, Parsec, Guilded, etc. all down. Did you guys pull the plug?
Some of critical domains newly blocked by Energized Regional Extension list:
www.google.com www.youtube.com feeds.feedburner.com avatars.githubusercontent.com www.gstatic.com connectivitycheck.gstatic.com
Clearly given up, blocking common domains and even NextDNS. Removed the Energized lists for now, will revisit this thread in the future to see if it's sorted.
steamcommunity.com also down, why?
Imagine u block google github yt fb from one list that is not about extreme privacy xDDD idk how bad Energized.Pro lists going worse and worse by time. Never seen more problematic list like Energized
I'm out. This is now unusable for me. Who but the most extreme privacy zealots will put up with so many useful sites being outright blocked? Urrgh.
This has gotten absolutely ridiculous now. Way too aggressive in blocking now. Not enabling this list anymore.
Like 3h ago everything has been fixed and right now again. Or start looking what lists are u adding or u have rat in repository cause idk how have u fixed it for period of time and again fvcked up list
More than a day, on and off, my main concerns have been (and again are) google.com and nextdns.io. I couldn't search, I couldn't check logs. Had to disable Private DNS to go to NextDNS, to see that Energized is acting up and disable it. I'm subscribing to this issue just in case, but My Energized Basic + Regional is gone until there's been a week without issues.
Yeah, it blocked linkedin, google domains, even nextdns.io... crazy. Unsubscribed as well.
Facebook.com is now blocked as well
reddit is blocked in ultimate
Adding to the list of things blocked in the past 2 hours in Energized basic: netflix.com assets.pinterest.com LinkedIn
Yeah just ditch Energized it’s an abandoned list
Does anyone have any alternatives? This is unacceptable.
well right now i'm using a huge amount of lists, but some good ones are oisd, 1hosts, notracking, and lightswitch05's ads and tracking.
blocked reddit. based?
Yeah just ditch Energized it’s an abandoned list
It can't be abandoned, it was updated an 3 hours ago, must be a mistake.
OISD GoodbyeAds(include lightswitch05) and 1Hosts that has been included in Energized.Pro, it was main reason why i was usuing it but guess its time to switch from Energized just to clear 1Hosts
I'll have to remove all energized lists for now until there is more information on this issue, really can't do anything important with many important domains website and domain app service blacklisted.

It’s a bot that update it
Does anyone have any alternatives? This is unacceptable.
This is my current statistics from NextDNS.io :
List / Number of queries blocked
Energized Basic 55,744
Goodbye Ads 41,772
1Hosts (Lite) 35,840
Lightswitch05 - Ads & Tracking 21,370
oisd 20,812
AdGuard DNS filter 20,656
Obviously Energized is gone now :p 5 others are all well know and much loved. I haven't had issues in past several months since I added some extras. Well, until Energized went bananas. Only thing that may annoy some people is Goodbye Ads blocking sponsored links, so eg top Google sponsored results / links won't work, but those are ads... May be useful... So gray area. Discard that list if annoyed by that. Rest are safe for general population, including any social apps, websites, and such
As of ~6hrs ago, the "ultimate" list has no domains in it.
This started a few days ago... please have a look at https://github.com/EnergizedProtection/block/issues/973 🙈

Blocklist is empty on AGH and site is empty and every link on energized.pro leads to 404
it looks like their homepage and README are back, maybe the maintainers realized?
Either they got hacked, or they merged pull requests without reviewing them
All lists are blank now. Well, it was a good run boys. Time to abandon ship. I recommend OISD list and shilling for my own DNS service: https://controld.com (our lists are bespoke).

At this point, I have zero faith that the maintainers have any idea what they are doing.
