I use them as my upstream DNS provider for pihole. I've only run into a few cases where I've had to switch to something else because their anti-malware DNS results was overzealous. I don't recall the specific cases.
I was using Quad9 until they had infra issues where latency skyrocketed from ~40ms to an unstable ~250ms... soon after I noticed that the routing was changed to another country with a latency of stable ~70ms.
A DNS resolver in another country breaks several things for me such as Wi-Fi Calling and certain CDNs that do not support EDNS Client Subnet, so I'm using Cloudflare Gateway DNS (DoH) for the time being.

I’ve never heard of quad9 before. Sounds cool. Anyone using them?

I use it too. It's pretty good. Despite being relatively unknown, there's some big partners behind it like IBM.
Given that IBM owns 9, it would have to have IBM behind it!

Yeah, DNS over TLS using unwind on OpenBSD - never had any problems with their service.
Have been using them for years, never had a single issue.
Using them since they started. No issues.
Yep for everything, since ~5 years.
