For the modern IP (aka IPv6) folks: 2606:4700:4700::1111

Other brands of IPv6 DNS servers are available.

It is quite the mouthful, but I really hope people aren't -- whether v4 or v6 -- having to manually type in DNS servers regularly. Whatever your choice of DNS server, it should be a set-it-and-forget-it affair, so the one-off lookup time becomes negligible.

DoT and DoH can be entered as URLs, this is the Quad9 example but there are several others:
tls://dns.quad9.net

You still need IP DNS to bootstrap, but you can use your ISP's DNS for that
