Ability to automatically disable ControlD ...

…Whilst Windscribe VPN is running. I use R.O.B.E.R.T. then which does exactly what I need it to with filtering - especially with the custom black/white and spoof lists of up to 10000 long it offers on the pro plan. ControlD provides a fantastic fallback for when the VPN drops out for whatever reason. I understand that ControlD provides the DNS filtering services for Windscribe so imagine, naively, that this might be an easy thing to implement? Anyway, here’s hoping! Many thanks K.

Using the ControlD web interface with a screen reader

Can someone look at using the ControlD web interface with a screen reader? I am seeing some unabeled buttons which was making it slightly difficult to edit some of the settings, for example on endpoints when looking to upload custom Ctrld configs.

Is there nextDNS CLI like functionality?

Currently a nextDNS user thinking about switching. Critical feature though is what nextDNS has: the ability to run on my router, capture DNS queries, and pass them upstream while maintaining the device info on the nextDNS level. This way, the router and DNS provider can see the device info and rules and such can be put in place on either side. Can Contorl-D do this as well ?

[Feature Request] Schedule filter on/off and also custom rules folder update

So it will disable a filter category at at specific time and then then re-enable it at a later time also to update custom rules folder contents from e.g. github think both of these would be welcomed additions

Used ControlDNS app to install yet NSLookup times out

I used the app to configure ControlDNS yet when I do a nslookup on a domain that I could not reach on Win10 I see that it is using server 127.0.0.1 and the lookup times out. The IPv6 is disabled on this machine and IPV4 is set to use 127.0.0.1. Even after allowing the domain through the filter the NSLookup still times out! Brave Browser reaches the domain after I put a filer in place yet NSLookup times out. IPV4 setting shows it is using 127.0.0.1 and IPV6 is disabled on Win10. I just purchased a premium subscription at a discount and I am just wondering whether that was a mistake. Having to determine whether it is Brave Browser, uBlock Origin or ControlDNS that is blocking access to websites is frustrating at times

False domains block hosted by Cloudflare, Inc. (AS13335)

Dear Master, Sometimes some domains loads successfully without issues, but, however, sometimes it can't be accessed even that I didn't make any changes to my fiters or rules and even when I have already set these websites to be accessed and bypassed the rules and filtered. For example, the website "<https://ntlite.com">. This is a well-known website and it doesn't blocked by default by any filter or rule. However, later I discovered that some websites like the example above, is hosted by Cloudflare, Inc. (AS13335) where the related IPs to (AS13335) is blocked by false or by mistake. In addition, IPs related to (AS13335) networks like (104.21.X.X) and (172.67.X.X) are blocked, which will make the hosted websites and services to be inaccessibile. Can you check further or investigate where is the problem because as I said, sometime it works but sometimes is not. Thank you.
