I am afraid the UK isps Virgin, three and Sky have blocked me completely from trying to browse anything at all if I try to enable this setting at all.

IF I enable it on any of them I have no Internet at all. Sucks but in the UK it's basically turning off you're Internet. I still have an older version of blokada working but when it updates it kills my Internet like the rest of them so I'm constantly fighting that.

That's odd, it works on GiffGaff and Lebara for me, and for everyone else I've set it up for. Maybe an issue with your phone? Does it work over WiFi?

My phone works perfectly until I enable it and I've tried a few different dns options with it and yes even use the longer domains designed for it.

Never had my phone work at all while they are On sadly I think it's been blocked by these isps honestly.

Sorry for the late reply, your link tries to add the . from the end of your sentence to it and breaks so I couldn't see your screenshot until I removed it. I notice you still have blokada enabled, have you tried switching it off completely and then enabling private DNS? I'm not a network expert but it seems like they could be treading on each others toes maybe.

Your partly right in that bitwarden was interfering but while I can get sky WiFi to work with private dns it still cuts off my mobile network which is 3.

Now that's not completely as bad as it sounds because I use WiFi calling a lot at home .

Ive seen the same issue in the past with virgin which even cut of my home pcs if I tried to use a dns that wasnt theirs.

I found this fix for Virgin Media, might be worth contacting 3 (or their support forums) to see if they have a similar fix

Also uk, and I've never ran into this issue.

Raise hell with your telecomms regulator. Choice of DNS (not to mention how web content is rendered) is solely your business, but it will only remain that way if you get vocal.
