Both the primary and the secondary going down is a killer. It's enough to make me switch out the secondary to a non-cloudflare DNS. Even when the secondary works the performance is pretty miserable. Adds about a 1s latency to each DNS resolution while it wait's for the primary to fail.

Aside from this one issue, is switching to 1.1.1.1 a good idea in your guys experience? Right now I just realized I hvae the DNS for my ISP which is probably how they inject bullshit 404 pages full of ads. What is the fastest/best public DNS in your guys experience?

CloudFlare DNS (1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1) and Google's DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) usually have the best latency everywhere. However, if you suspect your ISP is injecting stuff, a VPN service + their DNS might be more useful to improve your internet privacy.
