Annoyingly I can only use it for web browsers due to Windows 10's lack of DoH support,
Any use?

Sadly not, DoH in Windows 10 never left preview, and was dropped altogether in Windows 10 when Windows 11 came along.

This is why, if you can, you run your DNS on your router or pihole etc and all clients point to that.

I prefer my cloud-hosted solution. At the very least, resolving DNS locally has privacy implications, since all recursive DNS requests are sent in the clear to every nameserver you need to use to resolve something.

Windows 10 Home and it doesn't appear to be available. May only be applicable to grown up versions of W10.

I'm using Win10 build 19045 according to winver, and DoH only became available from the now discontinued build 19628.

Which build are you using?

Oh my 😂
Not as old as 19628 but it's a 21H1 insider release 🤦🏻‍♂️

Don't know if this old laptop will take Windows 11.
