AFAIK it's just a proxy to another DNS server with the added benefit of being able to resolve local domain names through mDNS.

- hk1337 1y agoIsn’t that essentially what DNS is? It may cache results but it has to get the results at some point and they communicate with other DNS servers that have the information?
- teddyh 1y agoYes, but systemd-resolved is only a stub resolver, not a real resolver.
- immibis 1y agoA recursive resolver starts at the root of the tree and walks downwards. Most OSes only have stub resolvers, which simply forward your request to a given recursive resolver, and don't traverse any tree.
