Note that if you use 1.1.1.1, you apparently can't visit archive.is links. I'm not sure why, but around a dozen people on HN have confirmed this. (At least as of a couple months ago.) I think the world could use more alternatives to 8.8.8.8. Hopefully 1.1.1.1 will become more reliable as the years tick by. (Do you use something besides 8.8.8.8 or 1.1.1.1? If so, post it here! Collecting reliable DNS servers might be…

Switched off 1.1.1.1 for that reason a while back. Currently using OpenDNS which is now unfortunately owned by Cisco. Definitely a lack of actually open alternatives.

As neutrally as possible:

Cloudflare doesn't support the DNS Extension that sends part of clients' IPs to the upstream resolver (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/EDNS_Client_Subnet). Cloudflare believes this is better for privacy.

Archive.is doesn't like this (because it prevents DNS-based CDN routing), and thus has a hardcoded exception to intentionally return bogus results to Cloudflare's resolvers.

I use OpenDNS. 208.67.222.222 doesn't roll off the tongue (or fingers) as easily as 1.1.1.1 but if you use it frequently enough, you'll remember it.

This is a bad practice.

Quad9 seems decent. They're certainly not as shitty as Cloudflare or Cisco.

I use https://www.dns0.eu/ but that doesn't have a fancy IP address

There is https://www.dns0.eu and https://nextdns.io.

I like the 300K requests per month free tier that nextdns.io has. Comes with plenty of filters.

Running your own resolver that points directly to root servers is also an option. https://nlnetlabs.nl/projects/unbound/about/

It isn't too complicated to set up and provides faster responses than external DNS servers, especially after the cache gets built up a bit.

Well. I used archive.is a lot. But Cloudflare has a point by not making a specific adjustment to fix the archive.is issue ( since it's on archive.is their end).

So, I don't go to archive.is anymore.
