Is it just me or doesn't the dnscrypt proxy not have an icon yet?

Sorry that I am not more helpful, I feel tired as it's midnight and I have been suffering migraine since I woke up.

It works as a local DNS server, but I am not sure I am entirely happy with the tagline.

I am not sure on this description.

  • I cannot remember giving DNSCrypt-proxy any direct CLI commands.
  • I think "bridges applications expecting regular DNS with servers supporting encrypted DNS" suggests that every app should manage DNS by itself, probably even DNS over HTTPS and centralize queries somewhere out of user control.
  • "Can also display the DNS activity" - you mean can log DNS queries or am I unaware of some CLI?
  • "locally block unwanted content." - I guess so, but I think there would be a better word that would also include forcing safe search etc. I don't know what the word would be though.

The operatingsystem="link" things won't actually do anything as you can see in the preview, so I think they should be removed.

Gotcha, that makes sense. Wasn’t sure if we want these filled out even in these cases but will remove them.

It's possible, yeah:

dnscrypt-proxy1

Hmm what about this description (taken in part from Arch's wiki and updated):

DNSCrypt-Proxy is a command-line DNS proxy with support for the encrypted DNS protocols, DNS over HTTPS and DNSCrypt. Can cache results to improve speed, allows filtering, forwarding, and cloaking, and is compatible with DNSSEC.

I like it, other than the last part

and is compatible with DNSSEC.

I don't know what they mean by "compatible with DNSSEC" unless it means "you can configure dnscrypt-proxy to require DNSSEC capable servers from sources file" as there is the "but" that dnscrypt-proxy won't validate DNSSEC by itself.
