    Ahh, interesting. I do indeed use 1.1.1.1, in part because of DNS-over-TLS that it supports. Thanks for the link.

      Is 1.1.1.1 like open source DNS? I used 8.8.8.8 (4.4.8.8?) for a long time when ISPs sometimes we’re flaky, any pointers for what to use nowadays?

        8.8.8.8 is Google’s DNS, which is not very privacy respecting of which sites you access. 1.1.1.1 is Cloudflare’s and it is a lot more privacy-respecting while still being imperfect. However their track record in the privacy/security community is currently quite good, so it’s up to you if those imperfections are a problem or not.
