      Yes but I think only very few applications use a hard coded DNS server. And under all those applications who use a hard coded DNS server is probably a very low percentage that uses encrypted DNS.

        A hard coded IP would mean it's unencrypted DNS which can be force-redirected to your router with NAT rules.

            My computer uses unencrypted DNS and sends the queries to my router. My router does the encryption for forwarded DNS queries sent to the internet. There's no need to encrypt DNS traffic in a LAN unless you don't trust this LAN. The WAN (internet) is where evil people try to snoop on you.
