Firefox by default directs DoH queries to DNS servers that are operated by a "trusted partner".

That's what I don't want - Firefox offering services.

Once you have a centralized server, with a huge number of minor queries passing through it, the operators get uppity. They start thinking they have editorial authority. Someone will decide that the DNS server should censor something. Child porn is the usual excuse, and then, after a while, you can't see sites that mention Tienanmen Square or Ukraine any more.

I'm quite happy with Sonic's classic DNS server. It just answers DNS queries and forwards requests to the appropriate upstream DNS server as required.
