A few months ago I went on a quest for a DNS server and was dissatisfied with current maintained projects. They were either good at adblocking (Blocky, grimd...) or good at specifying custom DNS (CoreDNS...).
So I forked grimd and embarked on rewriting a good chunk of it for it to address my needs - the result is leng.
- it is fast
- it is small
- it is easy
- you can specify blocklists and it will fetch them for you
- you can specify custom DNS records with proper zone file syntax (SRV records, etc)
- it supports DNS-over-HTTPS so you can stay private
- it is well-documented
- can be deployed on systemd, docker, or Nix
I have been running it as my nameserver in a Nomad cluster since! I plan to keep maintaining and improving it, so feel free to give it a try if it also fulfils your needs

So cool! I was looking for something really simple like this recently.
Tossed a PR in there BTW, the template config in Configuration.MD was causing me some issues.
Thank you for your PR! Keen to hear your feedback after you've used it a bit
