I ran a full recursor on my laptop for about two years. It's not a great choice, especially if you're not stationary. A lot as a lot of environments intercept DNS and poison your cache, the answers for lb'd names also change depending on your geolocation (so you have to flush it every time you move). Your queries are also not really private as you the resolver has to talk to multiple authoritatives to get you your name in a plain text. The performance is also not as great even with prefetching, as you don't benefit from a shared cache.

Probably the best thing you can do is to run something like https://github.com/jedisct1/dnscrypt-proxy which at least retains privacy between you and the resolver, and use public resolvers you trust.

If you don't trust any of them, you could start a resolver on a VM somewhere, but then again that can be traced back to you, so it depends on your threat model.

Both of these options are better than running a full resolver on localhost (unless you expect the recursive DNS infrastructure to fail, while authoritative remains operational).
