this a bad idea?

    You are sending all sites you visit to Cloudflare instead of your ISP. Trust them more?

    I’m using https://www.quad9.net which I trust more personally. They explicitly say nothing is logged, and they provide automatic filter of known bad actors on the web.

      What specifically about CF is the problem?

      You are only the 2nd to seem to have an issue, Ive heard hate before but no one is ever specific.

      Is it just a “feeling”?

        I like my dns records private and not shared with a corporation. How about you?

        There is always Google dns otherwise. :)

          I can certainly use them as a pass through for DNS, hows the latency?

            For me it’s excellent, I switched from Google dns to Cloudflare a few years back and now to quad. I honestly can’t say I notice any difference at all. You should try them. My impression is really good.

            I run a pihole dns server on my network configured to use quad with dnssec, so everyone in my family uses it and no complaints. :)

              Ill def consider it for the homelink, stuff like my instance will still be CF fronted, the caching is too good, they are eating 2/3rd of the fedi traffic at the edge.

      Quad9 is interesting def going to leverage it, still lacks edge delivery, which is critical for responsiveness. I’m keeping an eye on https://runonflux.io/ for edge.
