You know what’s “funny”? I distinctly remember advice from “hatters” in 1993 telling me to set up recursive DNS to prevent exactly this scenario. I remember thinking it was excessive but did it anyway because it cost basically nothing, but to think now the dystopia became so universal that it is good advice for everyone is just mind-blowing.

Instead of a Raspberry Pi, I can recommend one of the Pine64 boards. They work well with Manjaro: https://pine64.com/product-category/single-board-computers/
You still need to use upstream DNS which I assume is what op was asking about.
No you don’t, that’s the point of setting up a recursive DNS server. It queries the root nameservers and looks up everything itself.
