Hey everyone
I'm currently working on a small open-source project called DNSao . It is a lightweight DNS forwarder and filter written in Java.
It aims to be an alternative to Pi-hole, focusing on private querying (DoT and DoH support), low footprint and cache robustness. The README contains a more detailed list of features and inner workings.
I'm sharing it here because I'd really appreciate some feedback, on functionality, usability or docs.
How to test
You can find setup instructions, sample configs, and installation scripts here:
- Docs site: https://vitallan.github.io/dnsao/
There are two main ways to run it:
- As a Docker container
- Or as a systemd service via the install script
If you're using Debian or Ubuntu it should work out of the box.
What kind of feedback I'm looking for
- Stability and performance testing in your environment
- Suggestions on configuration design or documentation
- Ideas for features or integrations
- General UX feedback (install process, logs, metrics, etc.)
Even small comments like "it started fine on Ubuntu 22.04" or "took 200 ms longer than Unbound" would be helpful.
thanks a lot for the attention!
