My ISP is AT&T (located in the U.S.) and I have issues loading random websites. Currently have Google DNS set in my router, which works great. But I'm guessing there's a better, more private, option?

I recently switched to NextDNS. I used to run my own AdGuard Home with multiple DNS provider as upstream.

NextDNS is the move, the clients are open sourced and they encrypt everything. Plus their free option covers all my devices, no problem. Highly recommended!
