Hello, I've recently read that Firefox can disable DNS over HTTPS even if I've set it be on. How can I tell if Firefox is using DNS over HTTPS? I can't see anything obvious in any of the About pages. I'm using the Portable Apps version of Firefox. Thanks.

hi, you can see if dns-over-https is in use by going to about:networking#dns

in there the "TRR" column will show true for every hostname that got resolved through dns-over-https.

The developer's of firefox continue to make the browser better and better, by enabling the dns over https option, this action alone makes firefox a cut above the other browser's that are currently available. Thanks SO much for this implementation !! David
