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.
Not really as hiding dns alone doesn’t give you a big increase in privacy. Your isp can see what sites you visit immediately after anyway.
It could be argued that sending all your dns requests to a 3rd party by default is actually a decrease in privacy.
