      systemd-resolved is an independent binary and entirely optional, just developed by the same project.

      That said, it’s good. Supported DoT and DNSSEC early, easy to configure. No complaints for simple usage.

        and entirely optional

        In.the sense that it is usually delivered with all the other optional modules, and for alternatives or the old default you would need a bunch of shims and wrappers.

        And it does proper split DNS by default, using the search domains of each interface. That way you can configure a global DNS resolver while still being able to resolve local hostnames and without leaking other queries. I just hope they’ll also add DoH support, which is less likely to be blocked on a corporate network.
