It literally is a cron job or systemd timer to load an updated blocklist from time to time and I haven't looked at it for years (well... other an changing a path when I switched from unbound to dnsproxy, because that one is even simpler, doesn't even need a config other than a few parameters at startup and can provide DoH, DoT and/or DoQ access for when I'm not at home)
