Diversion Diversion performance questions

[VanillaXtract]

I have tried to read up quite a bit and as I still see some ads, I would like to know if my performance is as expected. Here is my setup:
Diversion installed via amtm
Diversion standard
list: medium
router dns-based filtering on
filter mode: router
ca.crt installed
verified my computer is using the router as the DNS (ipv6 though)
When I go to AdBlock Tester: test your AdBlock extensions (adblock-tester.com) I get a score of 65 of 100.
dns on my computer is automatic.

Is this the level of performance I should expect?

Okay so visited that site, and I get a lower score (57) than you do, but I get so many failed tests that I'd not really trust the result.

It's worth noting that I'm more interested in blocking dangerous sites and spam adverts than blocking absolutely everything

Y so lo, bro?

(and yes, also using Diversion + uBlock Origin)

For comparison, no Diversion. Instead Pi-hole + Unbound and uBlock Origin on Brave:

That website is not geared towards DNS blockers like mine. I’m sure that testing Pi-hole with the same hosts list as Diversion will produce the same result.
Diversion is perfect for me and my needs, plus the extras that users requested.
I have no need for extra blockers on my devices.

Diversion works just fine for all network clients there's no need for individual browser blocker, for me actually there's one site I need ublock and that is when watching youtube.

On that website I got 73%.

It looks like ublock Origin is great, but I want something I can deploy to my whole network. Part of this was to determine if Diversion was working "as expected". If it is, then I need something better because some of the websites I visit still have popups and ads that show through.

I suppose to your point, it does work for all clients except one. So I will give ublock Origin a spin. Thanks to everyone who suggested it.

Click uBlock origin, look for "</>" sign, click to disable JavaScript on this site. then refresh and you will get 100%

No that's not what I said, I only turn on ublock when I watch youtube cause diversion can handle website ads. I don't know of other browsers but in edge you can set ublock to be on or off on sites you choose.
