I used Mullvad’s guide to change the DNS in Linux Mint and it worked. But I have a question about Firefox’s DNS over HTTPS settings. Can I turn it to off now that the whole operating system uses the Mullvad DNS?

    Yeah you should turn it off, Mullvad’s DNS servers already give you DNS privacy. I forget which DNS servers Firefox’s DoH uses, but it will use some other DNS servers for Firefox with DoH enabled, which presumably you don’t want if you went out of your way to set your DNS servers to Mullvad’s.
