Hey Jonathan,
I cannot speak for the whole squid community, however if someone in the pfsense community doesn't want to maintain and or use squid it's his own choice.
If there is an issue it can be researched and there so much information about this specific "issue" that it's weird nobody bothered to respond the issue.
The reason for the log output is widely known and there are couple ways to resolve this.
I wrote a patch to override this behaviour in the past but I am no longer supporting this.
The main reason for me not supporting overriding this fix is since there are many bad actors which are using squid for their own gain while sacrificing some internet connectivity security aspects.
It is recommended to use a shared dns service for both the clients and the proxy server to avoid such issues.
My general recommendation is to use squid on a linux based os if possible.
There are other firewall projects which might be a better choice for your use case if you really need the proxy.
In my setup I am using Mikrotik as a router and firewall for a 1gbps line and a tiny x86 server for all other services.
It's more efficient and practical compared to netgate in my scenario.
Yours,
Eliezer

_______________________________________________Hello, thank you for the update Francesso, there is also some chatter about bugs within the Netgate community. Is this also related to the fixes in V7 (please see Redmine attached)?
I admit, I have a bias and assumption that that Big-Tech does not like Squid functional, and that most of what is listed below was done within a political aspect to generate a confusion within the firewall community. So much so that the package was considered an issue and Netgate started to recommend Squid's removal. I have stood by this package and continue to, as it works beautifully.
This Redmine should have been more concise and simplified within its notes, it seems to just generate confusion. I do not have issues like this and that is where I start to question what this is related to. Can Someone please respond to this Redmine for verification that has a higher-level knowledge about Squid? I hate to see this removed for some simple reason like a PHP issue that causes configuration issues.
