You realize that only the first three will be considered and that the last four are superfluous, right?
I prefer to use OpenDNS 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220
CloudFlare 1.1.1.1 on the WAN router and WAN router on all intranet nodes
If possible, I stay away from anything Google, they have trouble following specs, make their own rules and lot of their software has bugs that have lingered for years, common excuse is you did not pay for it so suck it up. Used to have 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 on all PCs and raspberies, but run into some weird hair pulling glitch which disappeared when switching to CF or OpenDNS. Ironically, some ISPs use Google DNS as their upstream authority so keep that in mind when using straight DHCP on the main router.
Some local resolvers that don’t log from OpenNic, otherwise 9.9.9.9.
We run our own caching forwarders for customer VMs. Forwarding queries to 9.9.9.10 and 2620:fe::10 (Quad 9), 4.2.2.2 (Level 3) and 74.82.42.42 (HE).
You won't find any Cloudflare there
I don't use dns, it's centralized.
I just enter random IP numbers and if it hits, it hits.
Just Google's DNS most of the time, on most of my servers.
my own
The Level 3 resolvers will redirect to a search engine instead of returning NXDOMAIN for non existent domains. Can make it hard to identify domain typos or validate domains exist or other unexpected things for your customers. Food for thought.
Many DNS servers can filter those bogus IP addresses, for example, dnsmasq has the
--bogus-nxdomain
option.Related, a recent StackExchange discussion on the Cloudflare DNS.

1.0.0.1 or 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 works fine for most areas...
DNS caching with Pihole on local network, so 192.168.x.xx and using cloudflare on pihole.
8.8.8.8
