Looking at their site, it seems complicated to set up.
What is the difference between IPv4, unbound, stubby, knot, and cloudfared - do you set one, or all of them? Do I want DNS over HTTPS, DNS over TLS, or both? Is it compatible with a VPN?
For the trouble, it looks like it wouldn't be any harder to just set up your own Pi-Hole. Am I wrong?
- ignoramous 7y agoI understand where you come from, but I'd say they've made a good job of simplfying as much as they could at this early stage. Use DNS over HTTPS for: 1. Firefox. 2. Intra app on Android phones below version 9. 3. Clouflared on Linux. 4. Their official iOS app. Use DNS over TLS for: 1. Android 9 and above. 2. Knot or Stubby or unbound clients on Linux. IPv6 and IPv4 are for DHCP provided DNS: 1. With IPv4, you'd need to link your client-ip (public IP of your router) with your nextdns setup. 2. IPv6 doesn't require any such linked-ip acrobatics. Re: VPN: If you use DNS over HTTPS on Android or iOS, you won't be able to use a VPN, and that's because the DNS traffic is itself routed through a VPN and one can't chain VPNs on Android just yet. Other than that, VPN should work with rest of the setup mechanisms.
