AdGuardHome Max rules in AdGuardHome to prevent router freezing?

So revisiting this, now using fewer lists and smaller ones at that too. This makes the load no longer an issue and refreshing the lists gives a temporary performance reduction at best. (Eg: queries take a bit longer to process whilst its updating).
Currently using:
Code:
AdAway Default Blocklist
HaGeZi's Pro Blocklist
HaGeZi TIF Mini
HaGeZi's Xiaomi Tracker Blocklist
https://s3.amazonaws.com/lists.disconnect.me/simple_ad.txt
Quidsup Notrack
Matamo referrer spam
URL HAUS
Phistank
The Big List of Hacked Malware Domains
Phising Army
ShadowWhisperer's Malware
1Hosts (mini)
xRuffKeyz NRD 14 day

Also disabled the AdGuard DNS Filter list. For some reason this also acts as a whitelist (though doesn't show up as one) and overrules other blocklists for domains like www.googleadservices.com. Not sure why they're whitelisting advertising/tracking domains forcefully, weird.

Thanks for the tips!

Using the Hagezi Pro list you’ll probably find that you don’t need most of those other lists as he would already incorporate them into his own.
