Hey /g/, why haven't you switched to OpenNIC yet?
OpenNIC is an open, gratis, and democratic alternative to ICANN. As a DNS provider, most OpenNIC servers do not log requests, and a large portion of the servers also support dnscrypt. With complete DNS neutrality, OpenNIC is censorship resistant and never hijacks your requests.
Besides doing standard DNS services for the ICANN namespace, OpenNIC also provides their own Top Level Domains such as .chan, .pirate, .oss, .gopher, and more. OpenNIC domain registration is completely gratis too. OpenNIC also supports Namecoin and New Nations domains.

>.chan? What's that?
.chan is an OpenNIC Top Level Domain for imageboards and related communities. To find out more, go to http://chandns.net/
>I want to register a .chan domain!
https://chandns.net/register/
>I've just configured OpenNIC for the first time? Now what?
Try http://bithunt.bit or http://grep.geek to search OpenNIC.
>What imageboard should I check out?
http://wer.chan is probably the best one on OpenNIC right now.
>What about file uploading?
http://upload.chan provides 64 MB per file, and right now is storing files permanently.
>Anything funny?
http://onii.chan is good for a chuckle.
So, /g/. Let's hear what DNS servers you do and what configurations you have set up.

Trying to configure on Ubuntu 14.04. Help?
Cause its not realiable.Even putting 10 servers in you can get to a point where none of them a resolving,or the no longer function.
5/10 good idea but need better server pool
If you're using this, can you still access the standard web? Oh and of course there's the question of speed. How slow are websites going to load using this DNS?

Its just a fucking dns

So? There's nothing stopping them from telling the current domain system to fuck off and just resolving all their own shit right? They've already created their own TLDs.
Here's an interesting scenario. What happens if ICANN makes a new gTLD that OpenNIC already used, and people start registering domains that already exist on OpenNIC?
because I run unbound
