Well I just finished putting together a pi-hole setup and wonder the best “info” to populate what I want it to block.

In the black list it looks like I can add individual domains or it appears you can put what looks like a link but is really a text file created from others blocking different types of sites.  I would prefer if there was something that auto updated and I could be almost hands free.

I did searches for this but Reddit, GitHub, and other stuff that made me have more questions than answers populated my searches. Not sure if any here can point me in the right direction.

When I ran the pi-hole install file/script I added cloudfree or something similar. I would have added more but I guess I hit enter instead of the up and down arrows. I have looked for these same options but do not even see what I did select.

I went to the website but after the instal and it’s running I am not seeing much.

Start with Steven Black's master list and add from there.   I've found adding all of the lists at once makes Gravity rather unhappy.
