Mullvad has operated public encrypted DNS (DoH) servers since 2022. They are unnecessary when using Mullvad VPN — traffic is already encrypted and Mullvad VPN's internal DNS handles all queries.

    I’ve been recommending Mullvad DNS for its adblock functionality. Quad9 does not provide this.

    I am now seeking recommendations for an equivalent I can recommend to friends and family for use on devices that do not easily support system-wide adblocking.

      AdGuard maintains a list of DNS providers; there are several with ad blocking.

      You can go with the default Adguard DNS configuration https://adguard-dns.io/en/public-dns.html

      Works great on my phone. Thinking of enabling it on my desktop, too, but I’m not too bothered there, using uBlock Origin. 👍
