Question NextDNS setups

[Parkinsond]

Yes but OISD is overall weaker than Hagezi filters. OISD cares a bit too much about not blocking things that most users would want to be blocked. Let's say that it's very noob friendly, A bit too much for my liking. Hagezi has multiple filters, so his filters are for every group of people you can think of. From noobs to privacy paranoids. He is also quicker to fix false positives. I use both of Hagezi and OISD.

Then I will go back to Hagezi; I trust you.

Just use both. It doesn't have a negative effect.

I can find browsing is faster using Adguard free account compared to that of NextDNS; I will keep using for a while to find out if it is a coincidence or it is really.

Same for me also. You would need to use a separate program to check DNS query logs, eg: AdGuard Home. I can check on Technitium on the PC and AdGuard for Android on my phone. For most queries, AdGuard has lower latency for whatever reason. It's true for me, even when NextDNS connects me to the closest servers.
BTW, try disabling Anonymized EDNS Client Subnet in NextDNS settings and see if you notice any improvements. EDNS improves performance in some cases, while decrease due to lower cache hit rates. EDNS never worked for me, as I have said previously, so this option doesn't have any impact.

I will try although I have completely no experience dealing with such a sort of programs.

I have noticed that when performing dns leak test online, all the time with three different dns services, the server is in UK, inspite of NextDNS has server in Cairo, and both Adguard and ControlD has servers in Istanbul (closer than UK).

I will try and let you know the progress.
