I've been a user since it was first mentioned on HN and the major issue at the moment is the performance. I often have to turn it off to get sites to resolve at all, otherwise chrome hangs indefinitely.
Having said that it's free (beta) right now so that's a statement of fact and by no means a complaint
- robertcope 7y agoYou're saying you have this issue with NextDNS? I've been using it since it was mentioned here, as well, and have had zero issues that were not self-created. FWIW.
- jlkuester7 7y agoSame. Been using NextDNS regularly since it was first announced on HN and have not seen any performance issues since the first few days. Highly recommend!
- philliphaydon 7y agoI saw someone mention NextDNS on HN about 2 months and decided to try it. The only issue's I've had is: 1. Epic Game Store was blocked - not an issue now as I uninstalled it and bought Borderlands 3 on steam. Now EGS is blocked again. 2. Adverts display in Google now that I don't have an ad-block, but it prevents me clicking them so I'm not fussed. 3. raygun.io is blocked - not sure why as it doesn't track any information of value as it's primarily used for crash reporting, and they are GDPR compliant. Other than that, this has been amazing. I'm definitely going to be a paid customer once its out of beta.
- angott 7y agoYou can solve issue #3 by whitelisting that hostname in the NextDNS dashboard.
- philliphaydon 7y agoYup. Did that. The service is crazy simple to use and so effective. I wish there was an option to start paying now.
