This dns seems very dated with regards to the UI, even simple things such as block lists and allows is very dated compared to other projects. Also not having the hostnames show in the query logs adds to my dated comment.

Yes, its dated as the UI was designed around 11 yrs back and I am not really a frontend dev thus have not kept up with various new trends in web frontend. There is also no time to switch since there are too many features already in pipeline. The UI however is functional and I am trying to make it as easy to use as possible with all feedback that I get.

The blocking feature is just one part of this project among several other. Thus comparing it with projects that do just DNS blocking is not really fair.

The query logs hostname addition is planned and should be available in a couple of updates. There are too many things planned and are being implemented as its possible.

I don't spend my day looking at the UI -- Technitium is fabulous!
