Does anyone know of good alternatives that also block ads? Seems Quad9 doesn't.

  Been using them for years. The price is reasonable too. It’s the only way I found to block ads everywhere on iOS (except the YT app, Mullvad’s Albania wireguard did that)

    The price is so reasonable, I think the risk is that you’re paying mainly with your data?

  Cloudflare DNS does not block ads, it only blocks malware

https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/releases https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/releases Trivial to self-host, and gives you full control of blocking.

I have a router with adguard on it so I can locally filter everything. Sometimes you need to unblock things to ensure something works properly, so having it be local is better in my opinion.

Since this seems to be the thread for public DoH providers, this article is probably worth mentioning (it can sort by DoH, DoT, DoQ, etc support). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_recursive_name_server https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_recursive_name_server
