How to enable Chromium DNS over HTTPS

How to enable Chromium DNS over HTTPS

[znavko--- via]

Hello! I have to fight for my freedom with Russian government that having no idea how to spoil the ilfe except blocking various of web-sites doing it very quickly.
And I have to use VPN for visit protonmail, safe-mail .net, tutanota and even prnt .sc.
I bypass blocking very well in IceCat I do not know why. I only have there 'DNS over HTTPS".
But in Ungogled-Chromium there are troubles even using VPN.
Ungogled-Chromium does not download SSL-certificates when I visit protonmail (because of blocking on provider).
I dug and I think dns over https will solve my problem, but under Guix this flag could not be enabled:

chrome://flags/#dns-over-https
Secure DNS lookups
Enables DNS over HTTPS. When this feature is enabled, your browser may try to use a secure HTTPS
connection to look up the addresses of websites and other web resources. Mac, Windows, Chrome OS,

#dns-over-https
Not available on your platform.

Hi,
I use [1] dnscrypt-proxy which is a daemon listening on localhost port 53 and encrypting all DNS queries in HTTPS.

FIY there is also DoT (DNS over TLS) which also encrypts the DNS queries though directly using TLS not within an HTTPS protocol.

Both solutions have their pros and cons. Duckduckgo is your friend.

Hope it helps,
Petr
