                i messed with eos, it’s alright. I had some problems with the mirrors breaking, to which the solution to fixing the broken keyring trust was “untrust the key, and forcibly install it” which i didn’t really like. Other than that it seemed ok.

                  Run the eos updater tool and it takes care of all of that for you. The broken mirrors isnt an actual issue either since there’s redundant mirrors on the mirror list I believe

                    oh believe me i did, it was fucked. The problem was that the keyring for EOS was out of date, and since i hadn’t updated in long enough, there was literally zero chain of trust for that keyring to be updated somehow. So i had to forcibly update it.

                    I tried a variety of things, including updating eos mirrors iirc, nothing worked until i fixed the keyring lol.

              nah it’s still good. I do prefer fedora myself though, but that’s just a preference

          ubuntu isn’t real and doesnt exist.

          And even then, all you would have to do is just stop using ubuntu. Which given the lifespan of a linux user, is a pretty normal occurrence.

      How did you build this list? This is likely to break other things. Azureedge isn’t just for ads, and msftconnecttest is literally only used to detect if your internet connection is working.

      Does this fuck up other stuff though? I used the old telemetry set before but it prevents you from signing in on Xbox account in games

      what? shouldn’t blocked domains be routed to 0.0.0.0 instead of loopback? This might cause the system generally to wait for a response instead of instantly realizing those domains don’t exists
