so... no opinions... no comments... no discussion... just posting links, multiple times, or doing marketing now, we are? my not so humble opinion is that dns over https is very evil, even if done under the guise of "privacy" or "protection/nanny" or "to protect us" or under any other logic or reasoning. my further opinions are that any "nanny" type "free" service where someone else decides what and where i may or may not go or what i may or may not see, needs to be either well regulated/controlled/open/published/etc or simply not be accepted... anyway, i am probably a minority as i also do not like/use/support very popular and world dominating services such as 'whatsapp' and i do not tweet or post photos of my food on insta and i have zero tiktok vids so i guess ymmv, Andre
