@Gangelo Please tell us the reason why you prefer OpenDNS DoH, does it offer any advantage compared to Cloudflare, Quad9 or even NextDNS?
Click to expand...
OpenDNS has never had a downtime throughout the years I have been using it, contrary to Cloudflare which had outages a few times. No need for NextDNS because all DNS queries go through Adguard with the Adguard DNS filter. Quad9 is a solid option but since F-Secure handles the security aspect I do not need an antimalware DNS service.
