I dislike this automatic 127.0.0.53 DNS server you see by default in /etc/resolv.conf. Whilst it works most of the time, it makes it hard to tell which upstream DNS servers are really in use. Fortunately I found a fix...
To lose 127.0.0.53 as the DNS, disable the systemd-resolved service and stop it:
sudo systemctl disable systemd-resolved.service
sudo service systemd-resolved stop
Put the following line in the [main] section of your /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf:
dns=default
Delete the symlink /etc/resolv.conf
rm /etc/resolv.conf
Restart network-manager
sudo service network-manager restart
The network connection make need to be taken down and up again to finally fix /etc/resolv.conf. Check the settings in the Network Manager GUI too, of course.
