How do I add the dns over https server to the "private dns" on android?
Yes the standard mode is a VPN. The app also offers a non-vpn mode that works best if you are root. Alternatively, you can piggy back it with a firewall app, but those will use the VPN api too. I have not tested it in that mode. FAQ
-
Is there an app that blocks Facebook and alike without a VPN slot/root?
https://github.com/ch4t4r/Nebulo can run in proxy (localhost) mode.

AdGuard vs Blokada (non root user)
DNS66, unfortunately, leaks DNS over TCP (which many spyware SDKs like InMobi / Gamooga use) and (iirc) it also lacks encryption which apps like personalDNSFilter, Nebulo implement.
- 58% of Hacker News, Reddit and tech-savvy audiences block Google Analytics
-
Any app connection scanners for Android?
Blokada remains a credible adblocker, but it isn't water tight, nor do I (and others I have spoken to, like the developers of Nebulo, personalDNSFilter, and DNS66) get the feeling the developers really get digital security or privacy.

Do you trust NextDNS?
Or nebulo for android, quad9, then blocklist.

Is Blokada effective? Any issues I should know about?
Blokada is pretty decent at what it does, but there absolutely are better alternatives, https://github.com/ch4t4r/Nebulo is one.

Adguard is amazing for adblocking on non-rooted android phones
For the above reasons, https://github.com/ch4t4r/Nebulo is a better app, privacy wise. It doesn't do any of the above.

My list of Privacy Friendly Apps and Services to ditch Big Tech Companies
I recommend personalDNSfilter (GitHub) as the on-device filter, which then gets passed through to nextDNS or any other DNS of your choosing. Been using it for over a year, it's superb, but I wish we had something as powerful as Portmaster (desktop-only for now, although the team has considered Android, and they thought it is a viable option)

Does anyone know how to use SagerNet or another FOSS app to achieve what is being done by Every Proxy in the NetGuard+pDNSf+VPN guide?
I've been looking into doing something similar and stumbled upon a method that uses personalDNSfilter with OpenVPN for personalDNSfilter, which is a special version of the OpenVPN for Android app.
