Why can I acces 1337 through chrome, but not through firefox?
I found out today that I can change my dns to acces 1337.to again. My ISP was blocking it. However, it works on chrome, but not on firefox. Why doesn't it work on firefox?
Chrome has DNS-over-HTTPS enabled by default. Firefox, however, enables that by default in certain regions only.
Cloudflare has a comprehensive guide on how to enable it in various browsers.
P.S. If you dun wanna use Cloudflare as the resolver, quad9 can be an (maybe better) option.
Followup question, prowlarr seems to have the same issue. Do you know if and how I can setup prowlarr to use couldflare dns?
Prowlarr works fine but you need yomething inbetween to solve the CF captcha.

Edit: Using both in a docker container
That seems as a weird decision by Firefox considering their relatively privacy focused image.
1.https does not mean more private. for regular browsing it does not matter 2. it is always good to have 2 browsers or use containers to seperate personal and regular stuff
Thanks!
Maybe a little off-topic, but I found this useful to explain difference between DoT and DoH: https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/dns/dns-over-tls/
Turns out I am using DoT instead of DoH. Both are encrypted, but DoT is distinguishable from HTTPS traffic.
Go into the settings and enable DNS over HTTPS. That should solve the problem, and honestly you should have it enabled anyway for privacy.
If you're accessing 1337.to without a VPN, I don't think you're going to be having issues with your internet for much longer, lol
Not everyone lives in the US
US or not accessing the site itself is in no way illegal.
