      PfBlockerNG has for a while intended to support the new “common” adblock list format that many KEY LIST providers are using increasingly as the only format. Notably Hagezi has shiftet to that format, and right now you can no longer download the Threat Intelligence Feeds in the old format. He’s graciously - as we speak - still keeping the Main Tiers of lists available in the old format because of pfBlockerN, but that’s robably not something that will stay for long.

      Is development of pfBlockerNG stopping because Threatgate is on the horizont? Right now Threatgate is not usable because of various bugs, and it will probably be a while before it has production quality.

      EDIT: Found a little more information here:
      https://www.reddit.com/r/pfBlockerNG/s/94r2vdUXtc

      New listformats will be there in v4.0, but as I understand the reddit posts, this will not be available as native package on pfSense+ because it has now restricted its repository options.

      Love the no fuss of using the official appliances :-)

        To upgrade, select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings. When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to reboot, or more depending on packages, CPU, and/or disk speed.
        Only install packages for your version of pfSense.
