From 6ecc2917c3241d1569038e3224b01f459fa6b27f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rouve Bernardo Date: Thu, 28 May 2026 18:53:17 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Add South Africa DNSCrypt and DoH resolvers I'm updating the SDNS stamps for my resolvers. I'm migrating the endpoints from the old vpsdns.co.za domain over to a new dedicated domain: cipherdns.co.za. Why the change? Branding: The old domain made it look like the resolver was just a generic public mirror provided by a VPS hosting provider. Moving to cipherdns.co.za helps clear up that confusion and lets me establish a proper brand. Future Growth: It gives me a clean naming structure to add more servers and regional clusters down the line. --- v3/public-resolvers.md | 14 ++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+) diff --git a/v3/public-resolvers.md b/v3/public-resolvers.md index b2f86c13..7fce4bc4 100644 --- a/v3/public-resolvers.md +++ b/v3/public-resolvers.md @@ -290,6 +290,20 @@ Hosted in Nuremberg, Germany.

Note: Technitium's AD flag handling drove me to the brink of insanity. Turns out I'm either dealing with a hyper-sensitive C# daemon edge case, or I'm still a novice xD.
