Not qname minimisation but cname cloaking. Pi-Hole probably has a separate setting to enable blocking cname (and https/svcb) cloaked domains? Rethink does this by default (both, the Android app with on-device blocklists and the resolver).
Yes, Rethink's ABP parser isn't the greatest, but I haven't found the time to debug the exact issues. Given the majority of the blocklists are not in the ABP format, I don't think I'll look at it anytime soon. |

Pihole is set to do cname unmasking. That is not the difference i am hunting. |

Unsure why pi-hole wouldn't block This change was sometime in 2022, iirc, at the suggestion of many a list maintainers. Footnotes

I get it fixed in the list level, still I find it curious. |

This is not likely due to cache interference. Most likely Pi Hole isn't either applying cname cloaking on select domains or Rethink's suffix matching is aggressive, which Pi Hole doesn't do (as it has way more RAM to work with than Rethink does on Android devices and can afford to do exact matches and retain the exact copies of lists). |

Moving this to discussions as it doesn't like Rethink has a bug here? If I'm mistaken, let me know, and I'll move it back (or create a new issue based on this report). |

We need to figure out why rethink that has only some of the lists that pihole uses here blocks more than pihole and needs more local exceptions. |

blog.joinmastodon.orgthis resolved on Pihole just fine
It is blocked on rethinkDNS
Both use the same set of Blocklists, in this case
https://easylist-downloads.adblockplus.org/ruadlist.txthttp://tagesschau-podcast.ard-mcdn.de/This is hit by by
Same as above, Pihole resolves this. RethinkDNS does not.
Is this a caching issue, is this a matter of differences in the way these systems do qname minimisation and resolve from the root down?
Are there differences in parsing the Blocklists in ABP format?
