- supports DoH or DoT (We love DNSCrypt, but there is already https://github.com/DNSCrypt/dnscrypt-resolvers which is directly supported by dnscrypt-proxy, so we don't consider useful to list providers only supporting it).

- supports DNSSEC (https://dnssec.vs.uni-due.de/ can test your current DNS provider).
|

- doesn't log IP addresses during normal operation (If your suggestion logs, please compare its privacy policy with other servers on our table that keep logs).
|

- preferably supports QNAME minimization (if you have access to the dig command, `dig +short txt qnamemintest.internet.nl` or `Resolve-DnsName -Type TXT -Name qnamemintest.internet.nl` if you are on Windows 10)

It's important for a website like privacytools.io to be up-to-date. Keep an eye on software updates of the applications listed here. Follow recent news about providers that are recommended. We try our best to keep up but we're not perfect and the internet is changing fast. So if you find an error, or you think a provider should not be listed here, or a qualified service provider is missing or a browser plugin is not the best choice anymore or anything else...

Reference in New Issue

This may not be the best possible suggestion, but I think "forum" may be more generally understood than "Discourse", while everyone with any interest towards forums probably recognises the name.
For consistency, I was following the usage of "Discourse community" as it is used later on in README.md under the "Support privacytools.io" header and on the privacytools.io site (https://www.privacytools.io/index.html#participate). If we're going to change this to "forum (Discourse)" then we should probably change all of those other strings as well.
