Before comparing various methods of contacting a recursor you have to decide what your threat model is; does it include your ISP snooping on you? If so then an encrypted transport of your dns queries is mandatory. If it doesn’t, stick with DNS53.

The problem mentioned in the post is specific to Cloudflare, as they do not support EDNS Client Subnet anyway, even over plain UDP53

"How to fix your computor: 1. Click dis 2. CLick dat. 3. Congratz your computor performs $100% better now 4. Click advanced error detail, click OK 5. ??? 6. Prfot!1!!
^^^ PowerShell solves this. (AD,DNS,IIS,Exchange,DPM,Hyper-V...)
- I cannot, yet, fully manage a Microsoft host from the CLI. What I consider to be 'fully managed' revolves around: installing software, updating software, adding/removing/'managing' users, setting up basic server-like features such as simple firewall rules, viewing common log-files ('user X logged in', 'software Y tried to execute Z task, the result was A'), starting/stopping/troubleshooting daemons, etc
^^^ Solved by PowerShell (You can even install a GUI-less version of WS2016 and all these will work.)
- Pick a major config-management system (my direct experience is with Puppet/Chef/Ansible/Salt). Configuring them to play nice with Windows-anything is an order of magnitude more difficult than even the most baroque *nix-like operating system.
^^^ I use Ansible Tower to manage a mixed WS and Linux fleet with great success, I only need to run `kinit` once every day to obtain a ticket, all logins afterwards are passwordless.
....... ok then
It's the compiler that needs to do the job.
