I can see this leading to frustrating issues where your browser works fine but every other native app on your system can't resolve hostnames because your regular DNS isn't working. Would be nice to have all hostname resolution dealt with at the OS level rather than special-cased within the browser. Is that something that modern OS's are planning to support?

Windows 10 May 2020 update brings DoH support but chrome and Firefox are not using the Api for it to the best of my knowledge.

  What do you mean "the API"? Shouldn't Windows just pass all requests to resolve domains through doh or dot? Have they really added an opt-in API instead of making it the default?

    Firefox assumes the OS does not use DoH and implements its own DoH lookup client with its own settings and its own list of servers. It's a huge mess.
