MODERATORS
I love NextDNS, does everything I need it to.
I use Control D. They operate a few resolvers.
- p0.freedns.controld.com - filters nothing
- p1.freedns.controld.com - filters malware
- p2.freedns.controld.com - filters malware + ads
- p3.freedns.controld.com - filters malware, ads, and social media (obviously not fediverse stuff since there are so many). This is the one i use.
Quad9 on my laptop. AdGuard on my phone.
I would encourage you to find one that fits your needs at DNSCrypt, or Privacy Guides, or Privacy Raccoon. Which will provide some basic information about a DNS resolver, then you can do more research as you see fit.
As a heads-up, some will block ads for you and some won't.
I'm a happy user of Control D. They have a free dns resolver on their page, you can choose which filters to apply. If you want more control you can get a paid subscription.
On android, I use rethinkDNS. Its pretty configurable and open-source. On windows or linux, I use mullvad dns. They have 2 free DNS resolvers(unfiltered, adblock)
Mullvad DNS works without using the VPN?
