Hi Marius, If you want to randomize requests to different servers, please try stubby package. I think it should offer best anonymity available. It is not true nscd is the only one. I think unbound at least randomizes queries, but I admit it is not configured via /etc/resolv.conf. With I think both dnsmasq and systemd-resolved does not keep strict ordering, which selects random server. But sure, it does not usually spread like option random in resolv.conf. I would suggest local unbound with qname-minimisation: yes. It is fedora default. I think it would also spread the usage, but would have to verify it.
