It apprears that NextDNS has removed No Google, No Facebook, and other blocklist without notifying users. One person said the NSA blocklist was also down. The company had made no responses to complaints on the community server when I checked earlier. Crickets…
I noticed Android and Linux being unable to access the app and web interface to confirm connections, starting some time on November 4th. I was able to switch DNS providers on Android and switch back, after which NextDNS seemed to work. On Linux however, systemd confirmed it was enabled but it went right to google’s webpage with no block.
If you’re on NextDNS, go check your domain filters ASAP. I switched to RethinkDNS, and it’s been decent so far. What is everyones preferred solution?


Is it true that Tailscale logs all of your IP addresses and usage timestamps?
It does. It is needed for the services provided inside the console where you manage your mesh. What they cannot see is what you’re actually doing, the content. If you don’t need the services that require that info, then Tailscale is probably more than you need and there are simpler (not easier) solutions.
