I've been using AdGuard DNS and I've been really happy with it. What don't you like about it? It would help to recommend another one know know specifically what the issue is.
And to confirm, you're talking about using the "Private DNS" functionality in Android?
I've had a few instances where it has seemingly turned off by itself, and I was also put off by its (imo) excessive monetization and high yearly price. Yeah, I'm using the DNS function.
Weird, I've never had it turn off on me. I'm using the free DNS without using an app or anything so there's no communication from them ever... so I haven't experience any monetization stuff at all.
I feel like we're talking about completely different things with how different our experiences are. How bizzare!
