# dnscrypt-proxy 2
A client implementation of the DNSCrypt protocol.
## Current status/features
| Features | dnscrypt-proxy 1.x | dnscrypt-proxy 2.x |
| --------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| Status | Old PoC, barely maintained any more | Very new, but quickly evolving |
| Code quality | Big ugly mess | Readable, easy to work on |
| Reliability | Poor, due to completely broken handling of edge cases | Excellent |
| Security | Written in C, using patched system libraries | Written in standard and portable Go |
| Dependencies | Specific versions of libsodium, libldns and libtool | None |
| Upstream connections using TCP | Catastrophic, requires client retries | Implemented as anyone would expect |
| Support of links with small MSS | Unreliable due to completely broken padding | Reliable, carefully implemented |
| Support for multiple servers | Nonexistent | Yes, with automatic failover and load-balancing |
| Custom additions | C API, requiers libldns for sanity | Clean Go structures using miekg/dns |
| AAAA blocking | Yes | Yes |
| DNS caching | Yes, with ugly hacks for DNSSEC support | Yes, without ugly hacks |
| EDNS support | Broken with custom records | Yes |
| Asynchronous filters | Lol, no they block everything | Of course, thanks to Go |
| Session-local storage for extensions | Impossible | Yes |
| Multicore support | Nonexistent | Yes, thanks to Go |
| Efficient padding of queries | Couldn't be any worse | Yes |
| Multiple local sockets | Impossible | Of course |
| Automatically picks the fastest servers | Lol, it supports only one at a time, anyway | Yes, out of the box |
## Planned features
* New super simple (to copy&paste), extensible format for servers parameters: "stamps"
* Automatic updates
* Filtering with regexes
* Offline responses
* Local DNSSEC validation
* Flexible logging
* Windows support that doesn't suck
* DNS-over-HTTP2
* Some real documentation
