Colak would it possible to change that post with YT videos to just links to the vids instead of embedding the whole sh*t ? Thank you.

Did you clear the DNS caches / or / restart your Mac ?

I did flush the caches, which usually works when I edit the hosts file. This seems to be the suggested command for newer macOS:

dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder

But I did not try restarting the Mac. :{

Maybe I’ll give it another try when the mood strikes.

I’ve had the nuclear option in my etc/hosts on linux since the day you posted it, Destry, and I got blank pages trying to connect to anything google or youtube. I changed FF default search engine and also now installed the FF invidio.us plugin, and it all seems to work well now. So worth trying again. Interestingly, I can still go to Google My Business although I can’t see the sites on Google search results, cos I can’t use Google search.

Notice I’m back using Firefox. Fed up of exploring other options which always seem to disappoint.

Looking through the nuclear lines with the ‘find’ function, I don’t see any accounting for business.google.com or www.business.google.com. Maybe if you add the lines to the file.

I, on the other hand, still can’t get the nuclear option to work at all. This time with a system reboot. All FB and Goog sites appear as normal. I don’t get it, but it’s definitely typical of my experiences with tech, which is why analog is more appealing by the year.

Just installed uMatrix for FF. It’s quite slick. Not a ‘Nuclear’ copy/paste solution, but you can pretty much accomplish the same thing without messing about in a file. I’ll need to spend more time with it. This does limit your blocking to FF, though, but better than nothing.
