Best DNS Servers

Entrambi i server DNS sono ottimi. Cloudflare è noto per la sua velocità, mentre NextDNS offre personalizzazione e protezione avanzata. La scelta dipende dalle tue esigenze specifiche.
Uso Linux (Ubuntu) quindi non posso eseguire alcuna applet Windows e utilizzo Quad9 per la protezione. Offre DNS su TLS e protezione dai virus. Mi sembra veloce. E ne sono felice.
Inoltre, attivo sempre ProtonVPN.
Quad9 ha spostato la sua sede centrale in Svizzera in modo da avere maggiore protezione e privacy ai sensi delle leggi svizzere e del GDPR.

Swiss law protection covers all citizenships. Unlike other DNS vendors who hide under weak US laws, their privacy guarantees are not enforceable and only voluntary subject to changes at any time.
Quad9 is a non-profit organization, unlike Cloudflare and NextDNS.

fwiw running firefox in linux, setup quad9 in network and on vpn, wireguard connection ok, but URL reply seemed a tad slow, but still ok. BUT then did double check with dnscheck.tools and I got:Have a read here:

"hmm there was an issue checking dns security!" under good signature I got 3 red x x x. (the rest were green checkmarks)
went to quad9 support, used their webmail form, spent a few minutes typing the message, then the webmail did not send.
so I was interested in trying quad9, and now I'm not
Quad9 is the best DNS overall and easy to recommend to everyoneHave a read here:

But those who don't pirate and don't care about privacy from the government then there is dns0.eu with better security intelligence
but best to run a DNS benchmark with a custom site list to find the DNS with good latency

Also, you can probably test using sites like
dnsspeedtest.online
and
www.dnscheck.tools

and
dnscheck.tools - check your dns resolvers

Maybe you used the unsecure version as the regular 9.9.9.9 has DNSSEC and I was able to send them a message from, their site so maybe try without extensions or contact them via mailfwiw running firefox in linux, setup quad9 in network and on vpn, wireguard connection ok, but URL reply seemed a tad slow, but still ok.

Anyway best to run a dns benchmark before switching to any dns although I'm a fan of the service so I usually blindly select it

my quad9 did NOT validate with dnscheck.tools...dnscheck.tools - check your dns resolvers

yes, I considered sending them an email, maybe I will tomorrow... I set quad9 up as shown in their setup guide for my linux distro using 9.9.9.9 -- I did connect using their dns, it did not fully validate. Is that my problem to fix or theirs...??
In my opinion, both Cloudflare and NextDNS have their own strengths, and the choice really depends on what’s more important to you. If you’re looking for high speed and simplicity, Cloudflare is a great option, as it’s one of the fastest DNS servers and provides basic privacy protection.
On the other hand, NextDNS offers more customization and is ideal for those who want more control over content filtering, tracker blocking, and enhanced privacy. You can configure blocklists and even view activity reports, giving you more oversight.
If you need a reliable and fast alternative, Cloudflare will do the job. But if customization and privacy are your priority, NextDNS is likely the better choice.

For me quad9 as sometimes faster then cloudflare and has faster integration of security features and better intelligence and their support is excellent
So it's my usual choice
But what most important is reliability then latency and cache hits on DNS servers
And quad9 is very reliable in my experience
About nextdns isn't it very limited if you're using the free version ?
Anyway for those limited dns0.eu is basically non configurable nextdns that runs the same servers and has done best in pishing, malware tests

Here's a recent example of their proactive stance on security:

To protect our users, Quad9 blocks DNS lookups of malicious host names from an up-to-the-minute list of threats. This blocking action protects your computer, mobile device, or IoT systems against a wide range of threats, such as malware, phishing, spyware, and botnets, and it can improve...
