User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/83.0.4103.116 Safari/537.36

Expected results:

Create a fallback provider for DoH in the event is the primary is down. After the recent cloudflare issue, users should be able to add a second provider to DoH proxy config.

hi reporter you can add your own custom doH server from your own provider or using nextDNS

go to connection settings in preferences and under enable DNS over HTTPS you should get the option to change your own doH server

or do you mean if cloudflare is not working properly it should automatically switch as another provider as a feature request?

The latter, a feature request for a fallback provider if the primary is down.
