I’m looking into (finally) hosting a DNS server on my home network, but I am unsure on what software to use. I’m probably going to be running it on an Raspberry Pi 4 for starters. What are your experiences and recommendations for DNS services?

If run your own root servers, it keeps your ISP from “snooping” at your otherwise encrypted https surfing and lets you cache things “locally”, not that you’ll entirely notice. You can also block known malicious domains using a tool like PiHole as your dns.
A lot of it is because this is homelab though. Your average user is fine pointing to a popular dns server like OpenDNS.
