I've been liking cloudflare more and more over the years. They've been taking some genuinely big steps towards a more free, open, and private internet; them, alongside the Mozilla Foundation. Two big thumbs up :)
I've been running pihole for years, but recently put cloudflared behind it to translate all standard DNS traffic to DoH traffic after filtering but before leaving the LAN. Now I just gotta find a good way to implement DoH from client>pihole and devices can start using ECH while still receiving DNS adblock. This will make 100% of the traffic leaving my network encrypted :) (if the client wants it to be at least)
I get why people dislike them, because they definitely are a very overwhelming monopoly. But despite that, they really provide very essential tools that are very easily accessible and free. I do like them as a company, so I haven't been too worried by the fact they are a huge monopoly that dominates a big portion of the web. They've handled the responsibility pretty well.
Google started this way too, just wait.
