For what it’s worth, I like the TOML configuration syntax since it’s so much more readable for me, and easier to understand compared to BIND, Unbound and other usual suspects. I guess the time has come for it to slowly start appearing in distro package repositories, Docker containers, etc.
I’m going to give it a go starting from next week and try to replace Unbound with Hickory on my personal public DNS resolver. I’ll be in UAE for a month on business and I don’t like state governments interfering with my DNS resolution, so I’ve provisioned a public resolver instance in nearby Bahrain on AWS and put nginx in front of it for DNS over HTTPS. Will be a fun ride.
But then again, it’s just typical HTTPS traffic towards my personal domain using a TLD of a sovereign country (that just happens to be the same TLD this web site is using, btw). Surely the UAE government would take my word for it, right? Right?

Sounds like fun but it’s rarely considered wise to post online about crimes you plan to commit
Daaamn, I’m busted.

I saw a link the other day about someone tunneling through the great firewall by hiding traffic in a VPN disguised as a webmail portal.
Very cool! I’ve been running ntpd-rs locally (on FreeBSD) recently as well.
