Well the title says it all.
As a second question: anyone knows of a benchmarking program for DNS services that doesn’t need Wine?
Free, uncensored, from northern europe (Denmark): https://blog.censurfridns.dk/
honorable mention: Digitale Gesellschaft (Switzerland): https://www.digitale-gesellschaft.ch/dns/
As for DNS Benchmarking: I used a Shell Script to check the performance of my pi hole. I got that from github, just look for “dns benchmark github” and you’ll find tons of script in all languages people wrote.
Edit: got two more:
Dns.watch (Germany): https://dns.watch/
Digital Courage (Germany): https://digitalcourage.de/support/zensurfreier-dns-server
Tried unbound ?
While self-hosting reduces the number of requests to upstream, it does not completely solve the problem (since OP still needs to forward requests to an upstream DNS). Do you have any suggestions for that?
May want to take a look at quad nine dns server.
https://blahdns.com/, swiss based? It’s also blocking ads.
You can set it on systemd I remember

Wait what does dns have to do with censoring? I though censoring would come from your internet provider and changing dns provider would not actually circumvent anything because the connection is still going through them. Am I completely mistaken?
Probably bad terminology on my part, sorry. I believe that some DNS servers do block some sites, though, e.g. torrent sites or similar kinds.
