I don't have a full understanding of what's going on here, so this might be a stupid comment: Isn't 1GB of DNS lookups quite a lot?

- Orangeair 10y agoGeez, color me double-wrong. Yes, that should be plenty. I thought was a VPN-esque solution that required shuffling all traffic through the VPS instance, but yes you're right, it's basically just a custom DNS server. In which case this would be totally fine. I might even try it myself if I ever decide to unroot my phone.
- filmor 10y agoDNS66 (https://github.com/julian-klode/dns66 https://github.com/julian-klode/dns66) doesn't require root. It uses the Android VPN system to capture DNS requests and forwards everything else.
- simfoo 10y agoAgreed. Works really well on all my Android devices and the performance impact is negligible
- bweitzman 10y agoIt would also have to serve the not found responses, no? Still, if they're short it seems unlikely that you'd have any issues.
