Thanks for the kind words.

For the test run, we are using Shalla.

I understand that quality of blacklists matters. It is also possible to 
mix-match multiple blacklists and that should be the ideal scenario with 
most of the bases covered. And that depends on the user-base and the 
financial aspects of sourcing the blacklists.

Right now, our first priority is to fix a handful of bugs reported just 
after the announcement.

Thanks & Regards,
Nishant
