down stops DNS from working on your Firefox entirely, which may be

* since then I have decided that 5 is the best option, because otherwise it goes past ***my*** Unbound setup. I hope Mozilla/Firefox will fix the two bugs linked above, so I don't have to choose between DNS under my control vs encrypted SNI.
* Are you using a VPN? Do they provide a DoH server? If yes, maybe the answer is 5 for eSNI?
