  • don’t know why you’d want to? you may trust your dns server but without dns over https the dns requests themselves are sent plaintext and are vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attack. with dns over https the dns requests are encrypted and that encryption would have to be broken for a MITM attacker to see your requests. more security is better and dns over https costs virtually nothing to use in terms of cpu resources.

    edit: oh do you mean whole system mullvad VPN? if so, then yeah dns over https doesn’t really help much but it’s also still a case of why bother turning it off when there’s no benefit to it.


  • linux typically won’t hard freeze on errors like that no matter the distro. it can, but rarely. being an all amd build i suspect there’s some cpu bios feature auto scaling core clock or voltage and in my experience ryzen cpus need to have a manually set stable clock and voltage to perform properly no matter the os. try checking your bios and disabling any powersaving or auto-scaling features for your cpu and manually set it for stock clock and voltage. you may need to look up what these values are as the bios might not have a default value for you. this might not be your issue but it’s worth trying. good luck!
