The solution isn’t to switch away from Cloudflare DNS. Particularly when the most notable alternative is Google or my ISP DNS who sells my internet history to the highest bidder. I really wish the community would post links with a service that works on Cloudflare DNS.

Wha? That is exactly the solution! Google is not in the first 100 of notable alternatives, is it? Really? It's so incredibly easy and vastly better. https://docs.pi-hole.net/guides/dns/unbound/ https://docs.pi-hole.net/guides/dns/unbound/

  I used a pihole for years but got rid of it after it started feeling like a job to maintain. It also doesn’t work on mobile unless on WiFi. Unless I also self-host a VPN I suppose.

    wireguard is equally simple. Both pihole and wireguard are set and forget in my experience.

Google is far from the only other viable DNS. https://www.quad9.net/ https://www.quad9.net/ is a fast privacy oriented DNS

  archive.is also blocks quad9 now. pretty much every privacy-oriented DNS service doesn't provide EDNS, which means that whether or not archive.is blocks them depends on whether or not the operator has gotten in a mood yet.
