is mullvad dns struggling? (piefed.world)

base.dns.mullvad.net is my goto for devices that I don't manage often, like for family, but the last few days it will randomly just not respond for a few minutes and then suddenly be fine. I haven't seen any news about it and their server status is just for their VPNs. Anyone else noticing this or have any info?

I have noticed similar issues recently and also suspect their DNS is to blame.

Next time it happens I'll try to toggle it off and back on, it's just been a few times over a few days but it will suddenly be all of the devices, even those on mobile networks for a minute or so and then it is fine for hours.
