This is a secure dns and adblocker that has evolved into a great privacy app. Yesterday i noticed it has added support for Wireguard and TOR as well as proxy. The app comes with a customizable firewall. It means you can have secure dns combined with vpn/proxy and firewall in one app.
P.S: I'm not the developer.
If we want to have the bigger picture we'll also need to read this about rethinkDns :
Is this a free service?
On-device firewall is free. The in-the-cloud Rethink DNS content-blocking resolver has both free (public beta) and paid tiers (private beta). Currently, pricing isn't implemented and so the private beta is essentially also free till then.
From faq : https://rethinkdns.com/faq Not here about arguing, people need to eat and live under a roof ofc, even in foss communities, but I think people need to know about it before installing & be dependant to its (for the moment free) features.
Anyone here switch to RethinkDNS from Blokada? Currently using Blokada and thinking about switching to RethinkDNS
Note that blokada used to generate unique IDs for users idk about now tho. rethinkDNS has so many good feature I didn't fins elsewhere. Custom DNS (dnscrypt+option to use custom servers and relays) and block bypass, filter lists (on device or built in into rethinkDNS DNS service), wiregaurd proxy for specific apps of choice and much more. Give it a try.
