Nice try CloudFlare,
but I'm still picking Quad9 any day over you:

Oh wow, that might be the shortest-representation IPv6 DNS server I've seen to date: 2620:fe::9
2a09:: 2a11:: and 2409:: are the shortest.
Do you recommend dns.sb?
I found them via IP address, so I don't know anything about the company beyond that.
That’s networks, not hosts
Nah, apparently it's completely valid to end IPv6 addresses with a 0. And I haven't done much research, but it seems IPv6 really doesn't have network addresses the way IPv4 does.
Also you can ping them and they reply.
You can have .0 as a host. 10.0.1.0/23 is a perfectly valid host, same with 10.0.0.255/23
