I know you can get good results with NextDNS, but lately I haven’t been a fan of subscriptions and those free trials. I’d like to find something similar, or even better
I prefer Mullvad, you can choose filters if you want to have blocked ads, trackers, adult content etc. or nothing
Mullvad DNS. You dont need to use their VPN. The DNS is provided for free. Here is guide to use it under GNU/Linux: https://man.sr.ht/~rek2/Hispagatos-wiki/software/EnableSecureDNS.md
from hispagatos.org
DNS0.eu is the new thing. Maybe also Control D Free DNS, Alternate DNS or if you want to go more hardcore LibreDNS. To be fair your biggest concern shouldn’t be only where you get your DNS from BUT also if it supports DoT and DoH - encrypting the DNS is more important for a lot people than actually using something other than Cloudflare or some other big company.
dns.adguard.com But know that some sites will not operate with it enabled.
Adguard is a very large data mining operation. You’ll eventually figure that out.
Yeah… After a user here on Lemmy pointed out that the AdGuard app on mobile made a lot of strange requests to ads servives, I gave it a try myself with PCAPdroid and seeing all thoses requests made by only opening the app made me think twice about AdGuard…
Removed all their services from my network and a happy piHole + quad9 user since !

That’s a VPN, but the OP is asking for a DNS.
