Dev channel update to 80.0.345.0 is live
Hmm, yeah, forcing DNS in adapter settings works although I had to do /flushdns in addition to that. Well, still I would've really preferred if DoH in Edge was set up similar to Firefox without relying on the DNS set in the network adapter settings so hopefully MS will make it work similar to FF.
The way it works in Firefox is you have a separate option for DoH in the network settings page where you can use custom DNS address or use Clourflare (comes as a default), no DNS setup required in the adapter settings.
I think Chrome either doesn't require DNS set in adapter setting or you can circumvent it by using launch parameters in addition to enable DoH flag.
Yeah i would like something like that too. Firefox uses its own network settings, you can set proxy settings inside Firefox that will only apply to it and not the rest of the system, SOCKS5, HTTP, HTTPS/SSL etc, even DNS over SOCKS5
I remember creating a topic about it 2 months ago

but didn't receive so much attention from developers unfortunately
no Google chrome needed to set DNS in network adapter in order for cloudflare website to detect the DoH, it was exactly like Edge insider, I'm using Edge and Chrome both Canary channels.
