I hate it when in selfhosted circles they recommend CF. Why in hell would you want to be tied to them when you are wary enough to selfhost ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Who would you recommend as an alternative DNS provider?
Tbh I don't think as a DNS provider they are too bad, it's pretty simple and one or another will do the job. I was more thinking about the techs talked in the article, or features such as tunnels and all.
Use a pihole with unbound so that you become your own DNS. It's waaaay better and it's easy as hell to set up. You don't even need a raspberry pi. It can be set up using in windows using wsl.

If you have an old spare computer that can be left on all the time, you could set it up on that computer and point your router DNS at it so your entire network benefits from it.
