Description

DNS-over-HTTPS forwarding can run with reduced privileges while using the NextDNS service. It is useful for users who want encrypted DNS and prefer a safer service account model.

DNS services influence all network name lookups. Review provider trust, profile settings, and fallback behavior before making it the only resolver.

How to run

nextdns.service
