Any idea how this compares to https://www.dns0.eu/ ?

dns0.eu is a French non‑profit organization founded in 2022 by Romain Cointepas and Olivier Poitrey — co-founders of NextDNS.

DNS4EU is an initiative by the European Commission that aims to offer an alternative to the public DNS resolvers currently dominating the market.

I am aware of that, I have read both sites. I meant more on a functional level. The other comment in this thread says that it censors some domains.

Ah. I guess the functionality descriptions may not be up to speed since it's just entered testing - that's how they describe it in the e-mail I got from their newsletter (that it just entered testing). Here they say they don't apply legal filtering. So the domain the other poster mentioned could be added by mistake

Thanks.

I saw that part about legal filtering. That's interesting since some E.U. countries have had court rulings compelling Cloudflare, and others, to do DNS poisoning. IIRC the context for that was about sports streaming.
