So, I'm trying to set up gluetun. I linked a Firefox container to it and apparently every check of DNS leaks shows that it's leaking. Cloudflare and quad9 are the servers, the same names that I've set to dot providers. So I am gathering from all of this that these leaks are to be expected? And non of the DNS servers show my real IP, always one of mullvad IPS. Am I getting this right?

Are you sure the Firefox settings aren't overriding your DNS?

How I imagine you responding to your singular downvoter:

Eh. If people aren't aware of it, now they are.

Check again, it is sneaky AF.

It was! Every DNS setting off and still I had to restart the whole stack twice

Yeah I was thinking DNS over https was sneaking in, it's a tricky little bastard and you have to kill Firefox to change that properly.

Not normal. Check Firefox plugins. Maybe disable that safe browsing check option I doubt that's it but it can't hurt.
