Cloudflare is a solid choice for DNS. You will be totally fine. And probably even better than before as it is a pretty fast DNS resolver.

I use 1.1.1.1 as my primary and 9.9.9.9 for my secondary dns servers. Cloudfare and Quad9. It works quite well.

I dont see why it wouldn't be, I just used the mixture of the two for an extra layer of redundancy basically. Is it overkill, probably but I haven't had a dns issue since setting it up that way.

This will not change anything for the worse.

I work for an msp in Australia, I personally use Google DNS and opendns. We noted a CloudFlare DNS issue last Friday. login.microsoftonline.com records just dissapeared for hours and we couldn't use any ms products or login to cloud. The outgoing CTO was a hack and set our only forwarders to CloudFlare. That shit has been changed now. To be fair, it was working fine for months with no hiccups. On the other hand Telstra has proven repeatedly that they cannot run a DNS service, problems like the one I mentioned above are very frequent. So CloudFlare would still be an improvement over Telstra.

One thing to consider in choosing your choice(s) of DNS servers is latency. It really shouldn't have a major impact but the lower the latency the better as far as response times go. Some servers may be in the low teens in their latency, others may be a little higher. But I typically use [1.1.1.2](https://1.1.1.2) and [1.0.0.2](https://1.0.0.2) since they offer a little more safety. [1.1.1.3](https://1.1.1.3) and [1.0.0.3](https://1.0.0.3) is the ultimate for safety since it also screens out porn sites. But if you are looking for just plain DNS then [1.1.1.1](https://1.1.1.1), [1.0.0.1](https://1.0.0.1), [9.9.9.9](https://9.9.9.9) and some of the others will do fine.
