Little Snitch is a application based firewall for outgoing connections. It is not mainly an Adblock of any sorts. It may be used that way with filter lists, but that is in no way it’s primary goal or purpose.
That is kinda naive, and absolutely depending on what software you install and use. Thinking „there can be no unwanted traffic on my system, as I use Linux and am in full control“ means you either have VERY high faith no application on Linux calls home ever, or vastly overconfidence in yourself and your system. If there was absolutely no use in applications like little snitch, things like OpenSnitch or Portmaster would not exist for Linux either.
