Thanks for the catalyst to re-enable my /etc/hosts approach to simplifying my life.
I'm surprised to see that adding:
127.0.0.1 youtube.com www.youtube.com
to /etc/hosts doesn't seem to block youtube, but every other line I added blocked/routed as expected. Is there something special about youtube and chromium?

- aeruder 6y agoIPV6 can cause some issues around this because browsers will typically do an IPV4 and IPV6 lookup in parallel. Try adding a ::1 youtube.com www.youtube.com also.
- smegma2 6y agoYes, some sites are more resilient somehow. I experience the same thing with twitter. You could try flushing your dns cache but IIRC that didn't even work for me.
- ISL 6y agoIt has now started blocking correctly. Must have needed something to get flushed. Back to it. $ noprocrast.sh
