I'm pretty happy with https://oisd.nl. There's so StevenBlack's hosts file if you want something smaller.
Use them in pihole, or add to ublock origin in addition to the normal lists. I'm assuming you don't mean using it as a literal hosts file (which has severe performance problems with lookups on large files)
It's a lookup in a static text file, rather than a database which is optimized and structured for quickly querying an item from a list of millions of entries

default uBlock Origin. default lists are constantly updated to avoid breakage

Never really tried the hostsfile approach. Why is it slower?

Then what is the solution for you?

I use ublock Origin everywhere and started using Pi-hole as well.
