i have a pihole and have been worried that DoH would break it. i checked the network settings in firefox and the DoH setting is there but it is disabled.

I doubt that chrome will allow one to disable DoH but at least firefox does for now.

I believe Pihole automatically put in the NXDOMAIN entry needed to disable DoH on Firefox for you. But who knows how long Firefox will respect that, since there's nothing stopping ISPs from employing the same strategy to disable DoH.

Even if Firefox stops respecting that due to malicious ISPs using it, you'll always be able to turn off DoH in Firefox's preferences.

For now.

This is one step in the boiling-the-frog process.
