because those 3rd-party resolvers are not under your control, which is usually interesting for someone running a homelab, and lie in responses.

"it's always dns" should ring a bell :)



For a homelab yes, but I figured GP was referring to a robust home network, not necessarily a homelab. "it's always dns" goes both ways as I've had local resolvers add huge amounts of latency to connection establishment.


yea. i was also advocating against local resolvers in the name of robustness, until my isp was starting to block certain domains.

not really the fact that some domains i don't care much about are blocked, but this is a dangerous precedent in deviation from facts.
