In Firefox, you can set a custom secure DNS. For this, first go into the Firefox settings and select the Privacy & Security tab. Then scroll down to the “DNS over HTTPS” section and choose from one of the protection levels.
Select “Increased Protection” and then “Custom” for adding a custom DNS provider.

@itsfoss@mastodon.social mine’s set Max protection for DNS, strict blocking protection for trackers. Except when I use Huggingface, interestingly.
@el_haych2024@mastodon.social Great 😃
@itsfoss@mastodon.social why does this help? why use a certain DNS provider?
@itsfoss@mastodon.social but without this setting Firefox uses the system DNS settings?
@itsfoss@mastodon.social I disable secure DNS in the browser as I use NextDNS with DoT via systemd-resolved.
DoH support is being worked on, though they could use more contributors.
