Can I use HTTPS RRs?

HTTPS RRs are a practical improvement over HTTPS records. However, adoption has been slow partly due to inconsistent support across DNS providers and registrars. Clear guidance on fallback strategies helps.

> you end up with no clear picture of which browsers support these records to which end.

> Unfortunately even the otherwise ever so useful https://caniuse.com/ does not provide that information

Not quite the same, but Cloudflare's statistics show that 8.1% of all DNS requests to its public resolver are for HTTPS RRs [0], and the statistics on the authoritative DNS server that I run [1] show that only 1.11% of requests were for an HTTPS RR.

I wonder why it’s not 14%, given that that’s the Safari market share, Safari is the only browser that does HTTPS DNS requests in its default configuration, and every https:// request should involve an HTTPS lookup?

A1: it’s naive to assume we’re at 100% https:// adoption? Any http:// URL will not trigger an HTTPS DNS lookup.

A2: site popularity and downstream caching of 1.1.1.1 means CloudFlare see fewer requests for HTTPS DNS than there are https:// connections?
