Cloudflare DNS

“My current chrome reports no at https://one.one.one.one/help/ so maybe I changed it or maybe the default's different now”

“They rewrite your CAA record so multiple other CAs can sign certs on your domains.”

“they use Cloudflare DNS behind the scenes, so when Cloudflare goes down, your website goes down too”

“The problem is pinging 1.1.1.1 can end up hitting a really really close-by server.”

“Cloudflare's business is being reliable; few sites would be a better choice.”

“It's simple, all .lan get resolved to the same IP.”

“i don't trust cloudflare more but at least it works consistently”

“is always the fastest, though Quad9 is a very close second”

“I've run into issues with using public wifi when I override my MacBook's DNS server to 1.1.1.1”

“I wish they'd be clearer about when they're being used and not pretend that this is some DNS feature”

“CF and similar providers are not true DNS hosting providers. They do DNS, but only so their CDN stuff works”

“If you set your DNS to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 everything works fine.”

“CF refuses to forward EDNS Client Subnet information and so they return bogus information”

“extremely low effort to set up and has never once failed me”

“Cloudflare can short circuit the recursive lookup for any of their properties, providing potential speedups at the resolution stage”

“using 1.1.1.1 for performance rather than privacy”

“Yesterday 1.1.1.1 failed to resolved "theinformation.com" (hosted on CF itself!) for many hours, answering NXDOMAIN.”

“Cloudflare likely still beats them on average”

“Cloudflare put a lot more thought into making it simple and intuitive to use.”

“The fact that Cloudflare and Google have convinced us all to use Cloudflare's and Google's resolvers is the problem.”

“But all other things being equal, Cloudflare's privacy policy is better than Google's.”

“I don’t keep DNS logs at all. But I also don’t show up 7 years later trash talking a company or product based on guesswork…”

“subject to the whim of the provider, who subject to court orders would have to oblige to continue operating as US entity”

“Many years ago I used Cloudflare, and more than once I had issues with them blocking websites I wanted to access.”

“I have no idea why anyone would use Cloudflare DNS, much less trust their more filtered versions.”

“Instead of being a neutral web infra, they actively participate in political agendas and censor things they "think" is wrong.”

“It's a service that does exactly what it's supposed to do.”

“Cloudflare DNS isn't fully functional (at least for me). Can't be used for general purpose DNS hosting imho.”

“After switching my DNS servers to Cloud Flare DNS (1.1.1.1, 1.0.0.1), it works fine.”

“cloudflare decided it's optional and then learned that everyone did implement RFC properly”

“it's really not okay that CloudFlare allows setting up other record types (e.g. TXT, but basically any) next to a CNAME”

“CloudFlare really doesn't understand RFC1034, their DNS authoritative interface only blocks A and AAAA if there is a CNAME defined”

“Cloudflare seem to be getting into thr swing of breaking things and then being transparent.”

“Tried with Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 to hide the VPN and DNS notification from Android System notification service but it does not work.”

“using cloudflare DNS is a step up from whatever the ISP's default DNS is”

“Cloudflare does not forward EDNS to the origin, so the records it returns are suboptimal for services that use DNS-based service affinity”

“they make it very easy to set this up with just an API key”

“it has good privacy and works with archive.is”

“I use Cloudflare's DNS and it works fine for me.”

“Somehow, it took another six minutes before an alert fired, at which point they noticed.”
