PiHole Blocklists for Roku

Anyone have a good blocklist for Roku on PiHole? The best one I've found is below, but it's not complete, and is regex, so doesn't update.

Thanks for finding this. Using pihole hasnt helped much with ad blocking or tracking prevention from roku or roku apps. I havent been able to block much without reducing functionality.

I used a similar regex pattern as the one you linked. But I now just use a Shield with a custom launcher and disconnected my TV from the internet entirely.

I'm curious about the reasoning for even using Roku in the first place.

The typical reason that I've heard is kids and/or spouse like it and don't care about privacy. A coworker set up a HTPC for a replacement and was frequently performing phone support when someone at home coudn't figure out something.
