Use dns over tls in unbound and point adguard at unbound

Does this mean Ill need to change the adguard port to 5353?

Do you want to use it as a DNS-over-TLS server in adguard, or use DNS-over-TLS for your upstream DNS connection?

I was going to try in adguard, but either would work. Not sure how I would do either haha

Why use adguard instead of DNSBL? Quite curious about that

DNSBL?

tbh, I didnt even know what DNSBL was till looking it up right now. Do you know of any online guides, id be willing to look into it

Adguard is still much more detailed and easier to use and doesn't take a performance hit for the paranoid folks using lots of lists.

use unbound only for local resolving

Private reverse DNS servers=127.0.0.1:5353
Upstream
[//local/...mylocaldomainN/]127.0.0.1:5353
tls://............ #external resolvers

Or use unbound as a resolver

Upstream
127.0.0.1:5353

but the latter is much slower for me.
