I still run djbdns as well, as both an authoritative server and a caching resolver.

The biggest downside to djbdns, to me, is its lack of DNSSEC support. There are patches available for that, but my distro doesn't package them and I haven't gotten around to making my own package to include them.

The next biggest is related: djbdns lacks direct support for some newer Resource Records (like type 257 CAA) in its data file. However, the data file does allow you to encode arbitrary records directly, it's just a hassle to do it and to verify correctness.
