I don't know about browsers DNS settings as I've never used them before (I didn't even realoze that's a thing).

If your ISP's DNS server is bad though, I suggest you modify the DNS settings in your network adapter. That way, every applocation will work better, not just one browser.

The dns of my ISP is not bad, my ISP is censoring ๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ websites like bs.to or s.to

I have to use the DNS from cloudfare or Google to be able to access the websites which does not work in Firefox. If I setup the dns settings in Firefox and then try to access the websites then Firefox just says that the dns service from Firefox could not be reached.

Using the exact same settings in Opera GX does work, that's why I will stick to Opera GX.
