1Hosts is failing to maintain its sets, even the Lite version.
Despite claims that 1Hosts Lite is a "set & forget" solution, it is proving unreliable for users. This is exemplified by the following case blocking famous sites: Citizens Bank FDM - I know it have a bad reputation, but it's legit. Huawei's weather - Is not weather widget meant to be tracker? Hoyoverse - Should Genshin players forget?
The last fix based on feedback was addressed back in April: commit 32cd.
Users should not be recommended a "set & forget" rule list that is so poorly maintained its whitelist, especially when actively developed alternatives exist that could readily replace it: like OISD or hagezi's list.
Or at least, users should be warned it's an aggressive ruleset now, just like how adguard deal with 1Hosts Pro in #431.

Just my 2 cents, the project haven't been maintained for 6 month...
these are the last actions taken by @badmojr and I'm about the only one who have provided some sort of feedback to users report. It seems to me, the project is abandon since @badmojr lost access to the repo, do to a single point of failure in his end, disk error. badmojr/1Hosts#1850 (comment)
