It's start. It's working. But status is unknown.

$ brew services list

dnsmasq unknown root /Library/LaunchDaemons/homebrew.mxcl.dnsmasq.plist

$ ping test90.local
PING test90.local (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes

I performed the installation using the following commands

brew install dnsmasq
echo 'address=/.local/127.0.0.1' > /opt/homebrew/etc/dnsmasq.conf
sudo brew services start dnsmasq
brew services list

Some debug info.

% brew doctor
Your system is ready to brew.

Anything else I should check? It would be nice if this status was displayed correctly.

I spent hours on this trying to get dnsmasq to work on a natively installed brew. for me, the problem was not knowing where the config file is. thank you for pointing it out that it lives at /opt/homebrew/etc/dnsmasq.confPhalarope
In your example you are overwriting the whole configuration file in the line echo 'address=/.local/127.0.0.1' > /opt/homebrew/etc/dnsmasq.confFridell

It's because you are running dnsmasq as superuser. Run sudo brew services list and you'll see the status.

Only superuser can run service on port 53.Nittygritty
