Hi, 2 suggestions:

  1. Discord: URL "discord-attachments-uploads-prd.storage.googleapis.com" is needed for custom stickers attachments to load properly (tested myself, worked after whitelisting) (source: https://www.reddit.com/r/discordapp/comments/yfvi1e/pihole_might_block_some_discord_functionality/)
  2. Typo: It should be "Canon Printers", not "Cannon Printers"

Somewhere in my lists I have something that blocks adding Southwest boarding passes to iOS Wallet. Whitelisting this domain fixes the issues:

Thanks for this, exactly what i was looking for after going through the first few lines of the first post. this is valuable. I was wondering on how to auto update this list to pihole if you are going to add more url's in the future.

Anyone know what sites/domains to whitelist for the Barnes and Noble NOOK app? I have a lot of adlists on but despite whitelisting a lot of common subdomains for Barnes and Noble (the nook one as well) as well as the main ones (in regex filtering too), I cannot make purchases anymore unless I turn off the dns server.

If someone wants to search manually for drivers on AMD.com, the "Submit" button will not work until you allow GoogleTagManager.com.

Not true, you must be blocking elsewhere, I had no trouble with the submit button to download the exe file. Check the log files, and check browser extensions.

Hello together. Created this Account just for this:

Please add "mtalk.google.com" and its variations (here a Reg-Ex for it: ^((alt)[0-9](-))?mtalk\.google\.com$).

It is used by some Apps like WhatsApp to give the user Push Notification. If it is Blocked the Notification only appear after Manually opening the app. Which is kinda bad for a Messaging App

Here a Post discussing it: Android phones home to mtalk.google.com - #5

There is a typo in the list. It should be “google” not “googel”. It’s under the “Push Notifications” section.

“pihole allow mtalk.googel.com”

Should be:
pihole allow mtalk.google.com
