Anybody runs private DNS?

I was playing around with DNS setting a few month ago. Then, I've must have left Adguard dns setting as my default DNS server. I completely forgot about and used it without any problem. I didn't even realize I was running private DNS until i was doing something on my friends S21.. and I noticed ads in the apps on his phone. For a moment I was like well.. that's a bummer having ads. And then it hit me how come his phone showing ads and mine doesn't. I put them side by side to see what's happening and ran the same apps. His phone was showing ads and mine for some reason had empty spaces no ads just blank space(a bit weird looking empty space) as if something was supposed to be in that space but something blocking it. I quickly thought about of some sort a filter and I finally remembered about DNS settings I was playing around a few months ago. Turns out all this time I've been running Adguard DNS without knowing it and using ad free apps.

This Adguard DNS settings is awesome .
 
I've been using Adguard since forever on all of my devices.
It just works.
I've tried others but I keep coming back to Adguard, period.
Glad to hear about it from you also!
