Why can't controlD block telegram?
I can access telegram on my pc and android devices using their official app.
Blocking telegram using the filters on ControlD doesn't help at all.
Any suggestions?

They have many servers, see here:

This is excellent. But my router has no option to re-enable blocked ips at a certain time which controlD has. But controlD has no option to block ip addresses. Any suggestions how I can block telegram using controlD or any other method?
My plan is to keep it blocked during daytime since I don't want to be distracted when I work.
Telegram doesn't fully rely on DNS, so it cannot be blocked using just DNS.
Damn. What else do I have to do then? :(
Telegram uses plenty of direct IP connections. It is very hard for governments, companies or users to block Telegram because of this. Even if you manage to block Telegram based on DNS and IP blocklisting, chances are very high it will just work again after a short amount of time.
