To each their own, I guess, but that would be a hard pass from me. One example from mobile: FF on android keeps trying to connect to its various services (like firefox.settings.services.mozilla.net). For privacy reasons, I use NetGuard to block this and other similar domains. But there is a gotcha: there are sites (like seekingalpha.com) who refuse to load if access to these same domains is blocked - even on a completely different browser! With NetGuard I can still visit those sites in the secondary browser while blocking Mozilla tracking. With DNS blocking I wouldn't be able to do that.
