I don't consider these interchangeable. They have different priorities and policies. If anything I'd choose one and use my ISP default as fallback.

- nemonemo 1y agoAgreed in principle, but has anyone seen any practical difference between these DNS services? What would be a more detailed downside for using these in parallel instead of the ISP default as a fallback?
- astrange 1y agoSome of them are so privacy-preserving they block sending your own location to the original DNS server, which makes anycast not work, so you get slower connections to the site.
- eli 1y agoMy ISP has already been caught selling personally identifiable customer data. I trust them less than any of those companies.
- sumtechguy 1y agoMy ISP one got kicked to the curb once they started returning results for anything including invalid sites. Basically to try to steer you towards their search.
- outworlder 1y agoMy ISP (one of the largest in the US) like to hijack DNS responses (specially NXDOMAIN) and serve crap. No thanks. Which is also why I have to use encryption to talk to public DNS servers otherwise they will hijack anyways.
