Do they actually have ads? I'll just whitelist the website ofc, but was a little shocked to GoodbyeAds block this tbh.

Not as far as I can see.
But there's many false positives, which is also why NextDNS has allowlist.

Looking at mine, something even blocked www.guinnessworldrecords.com (Lightswitch05) and ieee.org (none of my current blocklists anymore).

Goodbye Ads also blocks xHamster. Interesting.

Oh, was not aware of the false positives. Interesting. Do you know if this is a common thing or not with NextDNS?

Goodbye ads isn't even the default filter. This doesn't have much to do with NextDNS.
It's just one of the 3rd party filters.
