  • Configuration changes (to be required in versions 2.1.x):
    • [blacklist] has been renamed to [blocked_names]
    • [ip_blacklist] has been renamed to [blocked_ips]
    • [whitelist] has been renamed to [allowed_names]
    • generate-domains-blacklist.py has been renamed to generate-domains-blocklist.py, and the configuration files have been renamed as well.
  • dnscrypt-proxy -resolve has been completely revamped, and now requires the configuration file to be accessible. It will send a query to an IP address of the dnscrypt-proxy server by default. Sending queries to arbitrary servers is also supported with the new -resolve name,address syntax.
  • Relay lists can be set to * for automatic relay selection. When a wildcard is used, either for the list of servers or relays, the proxy ensures that relays and servers are on distinct networks.
  • Lying resolvers are detected and reported.
  • New return code: NOT_READY for queries received before the proxy has been initialized.
  • Server lists can't be older than a week any more, even if directory permissions are incorrect and cache files cannot be written.
  • macOS/arm64 is now officially supported.
  • New feature: allowed_ips, to configure a set of IP addresses to never block no matter what DNS name resolves to them.
  • Hard-coded IP addresses can be immediately returned for test queries sent by operating systems in order to check for connectivity and captive portals. Such responses can be sent even before an interface is considered as enabled by the operating system. This can be configured in a new section called [captive_portals].
  • On Linux, OpenBSD and FreeBSD, listen_addresses can now include IP addresses that haven't been assigned to an interface yet.
  • The logo has been tweaked to look fine on a dark background.
  • generate-domains-blocklist.py: regular expressions are now ignored in time-based entries.
  • Minor bug fixes and logging improvements.
  • Cloaking plugin: if an entry has multiple IP addresses for a type, all the IP addresses are now returned instead of a random one.
  • Static entries can now include DNSCrypt relays.
  • Name blocking: aliases relying on SVCB and HTTPS records can now be blocked in addition to aliases via regular CNAME records.
  • EDNS-Client-Subnet information can be added to outgoing queries. Instead of sending the actual client IP, ECS information is user
    configurable, and IP addresses will be randomly chosen for every query.
  • Initial DoH queries are now checked using random names in order to properly measure CDNs such as Tencent that ignore the padding.
  • DoH: the max-stale cache control directive is now present in queries.
  • Logs can now be sent to /dev/stdout instead of actual files.
  • User switching is now supported on macOS.
  • New download mirror (https://download.dnscrypt.net) for resolvers, relays and parental-control.
