Nextdns.io and cloudflare externally. Pi-hole pointing to those internally. Preferably encrypted. Preferably with Firefox due to esni support.

Very satisfied NextDNS user here. Easy to set up, and it’s a surprise for me how much nicer ad and tracker blocking is over my entire network (all laptops, phones, smart TV etc.) than just using a blocker in my web browser.
In my case NextDNS shows up as Google, both here and on https://www.dnsleaktest.com/ since they are using GCP.
Did not know about nextdns, thank you.

One question popped into my head is how do you trust nextdns? or are you doing something so that you do not need to trust it?

I just use it to block ads.
