Some DNS questions
Some DNS questions
I already know that private DNS is important for privacy. I'm using Quad9 btw.
But recently I hear a lot about NextDNS and similar providers that give more advanced features such as custom filters and domain blocking. I'm getting interested in that topic now as I have to use some proprietary apps with a lot of trackers in them.
However I'm really struggling to find useful information about what domains to block, what settings to use in one or another use case etc. I don't have much experience with firewalls and server stuff either which makes it even harder.
So, could anyone share some good resources on this so I can get started? Or should I just not worry about it and use a whole other system such as firewall?
You're viewing a single thread.
Dnscrypt-proxy supports DNS over https (doh), oblivious DNS over https (odoh), DNS over TLS (dot), and dnscrypt (encrypted and anonymous DNS).
IP and domain blacklist. IP whitelist.
End to end encrypted.
You can use quad9, cloudflare, etc, or any provider you like.
I use https://dnscrypt.ca/about.shtml for my doh and as one of my dnscrypt servers.
Depending on your os it's pretty simple to setup.
This is the way.
