AdGuard DNS is “your personal” public recursive DNS server that you can customize to your individual needs with block lists, application control, parental controls, and time profiles. You also have the option of encrypting your public DNS queries using various encryption protocols (DNS over TLS, DNS over HTTPS, DNS over Quic, and DNSCrypt), giving you one more building block to protect your personal data. Another advantage is that you can also use your AdGuard DNS server when you are on the move, so you are always protected. Further information and free access to AdGuard DNS can be found here: https://adguard-dns.io
As an alternative to AdGuard DNS, I can also recommend the NextDNS service. This offers an even wider range of functions.
