Was hit by this. Took me some time to figure out what was going on, thanks to PiHole caching entries. Swapped to Quad9[1], been using them since. Was debating setting up my own recursive resolver, but the privacy aspect seemed less than ideal. Damed if you do, damed if you don't kinda. [1]: https://www.quad9.net/ https://www.quad9.net/

Same here, except with a EdgeRouter (Ubiquiti) DNS caching.

What's your privacy concern with a recursive resolver? If you're not using DoH or DoT, your ISP can see everything anyways.

  I live in a country where I'm not overly concerned about my ISP. But yeah, it was more that the privacy implications are unclear to me.

Did 1.0.0.1 not work? Do people not use the backup resolvers that providers offer? I didn't even know that there was an outage. Cloudflare is much faster than quad9, at least for my connection. Talking like sub 10ms response vs 30+ for other providers. I use Technitium and legacy DNS on my internal network. I have Technitium setup to use DoH to cloudflare for all the requests it makes. Best of both worlds IMO

  I admit I hadn't set up 1.0.0.1 but the secondary IPv6 one as backup. Neither worked. I run Pi-hole, haven't noticed any significant difference in speed. But good point, will see if I can find that DNS benchmark tool again.

    Just as a follow-up, using this[1] tool it seems that from my location Quad9 is about as fast as Cloudflare. Both faster than Google. Now, I'm in Norway and Quad9 is in Switzerland, so that might be related. 1. 1. 1. 1 | Min | Avg | Max |Std.Dev|Reliab%| ----------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ - Cached Name | 0.010 | 0.012 | 0.014 | 0.001 | 100.0 | - Uncached Name | 0.010 | 0.046 | 0.249 | 0.056 | 100.0 | - DotCom Lookup | 0.009 | 0.014 | 0.021 | 0.002 | 100.0 | ---<-------->---+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ one.one.one.one CLOUDFLARENET, US 9. 9. 9. 9 | Min | Avg | Max |Std.Dev|Reliab%| ----------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ - Cached Name | 0.009 | 0.012 | 0.015 | 0.001 | 100.0 | - Uncached Name | 0.013 | 0.066 | 0.286 | 0.074 | 100.0 | - DotCom Lookup | 0.029 | 0.042 | 0.060 | 0.012 | 100.0 | ---<-------->---+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ dns9.quad9.net QUAD9-AS-1, CH [1]: https://www.grc.com/dns/benchmark.htm https://www.grc.com/dns/benchmark.htm
