Provide a pre-defined list of upstreams and bootstrap resolvers in the UI

[ibksturm]

Dobri dem Guys

an hour ago i had an idear about resolvers under the shower

idear:

i think there should 2 option

a) default servers as now (doh cloudflare and maybe tls / doh / dnsc quad9) without user interogation

b) extended

• inputfield as it is now
• klick by multiplechoise list (ordered by plain udp /plain tcp/ dnscrypt / doh / tls)

maybe with selectboxes dnssec, filters and protocol

frank @jedisct1 got some knowledge from dnscrypt-proxy about filtering

ok if i thinking forward, with this idear, there should be one or more public lists with server which you could link to... example dnsprivacy.org or dnscrypt-resolvers...

maybe the baselist are in a equal format as frank do it... so people could put their servers on frank lists and you link (dnsc, doh) to it and / or you maintain your own list (dnscrypt / doh / tls)

just thinking loud, maybe its an option, maybe not :)

let us talk about

greets and happy easter monday

pretty cool!

yeah somethink like that i‘d think about, but in a more „includet“ way as i wrote up there 🤩

b) any ootions somebody could put more dns server into the list? or could the list autosync in parts with dnscrypt (work do twice makes zero)

So basically you want a beautiful list to choose from?

Sure, you can PR it here: http://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdguardKnowledgeBase

What about this link? https://kb.adguard.com/en/general/dns-providers

Like that however i feel too annoying to copy paste from that site or write manually

l see upstream and bootstrap DNS fields have too long horizontal length space then it's possible to split it to two separate fields unless consider to keep for write DNS stamps within one row and another side able to use for display recently used several DNS servers with auto input (by click) feature then it helpful for us to move between servers easily.

Display pre-defined list may promote dns providers :(

The message in the original post is not very clear for the viewer. Can you update it to make it more understandable? That would be helpful.

What about using public-servers as it already contains information like logging, blocking and supported protocols.

If it helps you can use the two api to obtain an updated list of open resolvers, from the dns crypt project:
