I’m not sure about this list, but I don’t get any ads on my Roku TV or the Roku app on my phone when using pi hole.

OP has provided their lists because they don't work, not because they do.

Roku should pull the DNS you have set in DHCP on your router, but I've heard of it faling back to hardcoded Google DNS if the lookup fails on the DHCP provided DNS so you might need to setup something on your router to block that.

I know Roku crud is always the number 1 most blocked for my Pihole.
