DNS Bypassing website blocks don't work only in Firefox

For a while now I've been using the Cloudflare DNS (1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1) on my router settings, because it helps me access websites my country's government has blocked. It's been working fine on Firefox for quite a long time, but when I tried it again today for some reason it wouldn't work. I double checked my proxy settings, changed some of them and I tried switching to Google's DNS too but again, nothing. Using this DNS to bypass website bans works on my phone and on Windows using other browsers, so I was hoping there would be a way to fix this issue.

I didn't do that but.. for some reason after sleeping it over it got fixed. I don't think it had to do with my DNS settings it was probably some bug on Firefox's side
