If you still want to use a VPN style adblocker, I moved from Blokada some time ago to Adaway. Works the same.
Thank you for helping fill out this list. May I ask why you moved away from Blokada? Version 5 is bad ofc, and 6 is far, FAR worse, but 4 worked well for me.
It looks like AdAway has some nice features since I saw it last, like the ability to whitelist a particular app. If it does not require root permissions, it might be a clear winner even.
blokada to netGuard and the reason is precision

it doesn't need root
