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?

The concept of a privacy friendly DNS resolver is a paradox. You can hope that they dont log your traffic, but you will never know.

    Exactly, but isn't it better to have tried and fail than to not try at all?

    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.
