Yo, thanks for all the replies! Didn’t expect so many takes on this.
Tried Cloudflare’s 1.1.1.1 and it’s *way* faster than my ISP’s DNS. Still gonna pair it with a VPN for banking, but for everyday browsing, this is a game-changer.
Anyone else using a DNS proxy for gaming? Heard it can reduce ping.

DNS proxies are *not* a security tool. They’re a convenience tool.
If you’re cool with that, great. But if you’re handling sensitive stuff, don’t skip the VPN.
Namecheap’s DNS proxy is cheap and works well for basic stuff.
