What are your #homelab (s) using for recursive DNS servers? I tried the whole root blah blah blah and it ended up being slower for #DNS or for me. I ended up switching to Quad9.. For now I suppose it was the only one I. could find that is not run by some corporation.

adguard-home primary, blocky secondary, with nominally identical blocklists and configs. (It is theoretically possible to scale adguard now, but I'm used to this setup.)

Both point to secure, trusted upstreams that are not google because my provider does evil manipulation of DNS traffic (and smtp, probably others) when they can and I kinda wish that was illegal.

AdGuard Home | Network-wide software for any OS: Windows, macOS, Linux

AdGuard Home is a network-wide software for blocking ads & tracking. After you set it up, it’ll cover ALL your home devices, and you don’t need any client-side software for that.

@train sdns://AgEAAAAAAAAAAAANZG5zLnF1YWQ5Lm5ldAovZG5zLXF1ZXJ5 (quad9) with 1.1.1.1/9.9.9.9 for bootstrapping. Have you checked https://adguard-dns.io/kb/general/dns-providers/ ? (It is from adguard but it is a simple list, no weirdness)
Known DNS Providers | AdGuard DNS Knowledge Base

Here we suggest a list of trusted DNS providers. To use them, first install AdGuard Ad Blocker or AdGuard VPN on your device. Then, on the same device, click the link to a provider in this article

@dis ahh good i'm using quad9 too. It was the only thing I could find that is not governed by commercial interest.
