My ISPs DNS lookup takes literally one second every time, so I went with Quad9, it really sped up my browsing. Do you know any other alternatives?

    Sure yeah, but i think the better argument for switching is decentralization. Its dangerous for everyone to depend on one or a few monopolistic DNS providers. Thats also why you shouldnt use cloudflare.

      You’re totally right. In the long run I’ll probably get myself some selfhosted solution, but right now I want to focus on other things. Also, I stay away from Cloudlare as far as I can. I don’t trust them.

        What would be a better alternative that you’d recommend to hide a public IP? I’m familiar with self-hosting, so I could deploy the necessities.
