    Question DNS recommended?

    Hey, everyone!

    I've read that if you add a very good DNS server into your Network settings, they can improve your speed and response while you're surfing on the Internet. If that is true, what DNS servers would you recommend? I've found a few of them, and Cloudflare seems to be the best. What do you think?

    You won't be able to tell the difference, unless the currently used DNS is really bad. Usually, the fastest DNS is that, provided by the ISP, which also is the default option.

    That or run your own caching dns locally. But we are talking between hundredths or thousandths of a second depending on isp. Is it worth it? You decide.
