Cloudflare is faster I am pretty sure....and the second question : who has better speed ?

Local Host
Speed is useless to discuss, it depends your on location.
Very important point. Ping matters so much less than the CDNs that the DNS points you to. In fact the ping to those/location of those CDNs is what really matters.

Local Host
Ping also depends on your distance, another useless argument.
do people still rely upon 3rd party dns? surely its only for convenience!
#unbound
#unbound
being your own recursive dns sever that supports DNSsec is pennies,.. if you run a pi or a pihole unbound - Pi-hole documentation
imho dont rely on a 3rd party when you can take control, be your own dns!
but back to topic betwwen 1.1.1.1 or 9.9.9.9 it doesnt matter... put one to a primary and the other to a secondary, in which order doesn't matter
, your internet will work & resolve...
its then down to which company you trust the most with every detail they gather........ #unbound

so test yourself! try each and works best for you

DNS Malware Filtering Compared: Quad9 VS Cloudflare VS DNS Filter VS OpenDNS / Cisco Umbrella
Hi there, I’m a security researcher at DNSFilter, and I was very interested to see this test. I’ve spent a while looking into it because I was surprised by the results, and had a few comments. I had planned to reply yesterday, but my Saturday went a bit askew so I haven’t had a chance until...DNS Malware Filtering Compared: Quad9 VS Cloudflare VS DNS Filter VS OpenDNS / Cisco Umbrella
Hello from Greece. Been following Tom on YouTube but this video gave me a reason to signup on the forum. I recently switched to Quad9 (57ms latency) from Cloudflare (17ms latency) since the latter was giving me some blank replies on some DNSSEC-enabled zones. I also found that Quad9 is more...
I do not know what to believe
I have seen few people testing out in YouTube and forums. They say the secure public dns comes close. So basically if the domains from public accessible places are used then that would be the result most probably. But if tested in real life usage ,then I don't know. Plus the Gateway dns is more comprehensive with lots of blocking categories and most importantly being able to block new and newly seen domains.
The thing about pi hole is....can it be used on the go and configured on Android, windows devices so that I am able to use it on the go or when I am using public wifi outside my home?
Yeah actually I thing the guy used old domains many of which were probably dead. So that test isn't much of a help.DNS Malware Filtering Compared: Quad9 VS Cloudflare VS DNS Filter VS OpenDNS / Cisco Umbrella

Yes and if you are being routed to farther CDNs for the sites you are visiting and media you are consuming then you will have a suboptimal experience. This is why it is not always ideal performance wise to switch from an ISP DNS. Though that varies by the competency of the ISP. But a lot of the big
ones host content of the big players (YouTube, Netflix) on their edge servers much closer than where Cloudflare or Quad9 is going to route you. And those will have lower pings (as a function of distance).
You won't get an answer to this. malicious domains are not static, its dynamic and changes/introduces thousands of new ones every second or so. Its impossible to keep track of all of them by anyone. Apart from that phishing/malicious domains usually doesn't last more than a week or so, it goes dead or gets found after that. So what you need is something that can block newly created domains till it passes a month or so.
yes you can, linode provides such a service. https://www.linode.com/marketplace/apps/linode/pi-hole/
no, unbound is the dns server, in recursive mode, there is no need for forwarders, used more for privacy.. for convenience though just stick to cloudflare/quad9 both are very popular.
pihole can be used mobile if you vpn back to your network... (check out brave browser in android, adblocking already baked in, even for youtube no need for extensions/other apps)
