Setup your own DNS over TLS

So I have gone a little crazy lately in my home lab. I have created a anycast address in the LAN of 10.10.10.10 that goes to the nearest pihole. (Local, Datacetner 1 or Datacenter 2) While that was nice I still wanted a way to have pihole while on the go. I thought about a VPN, that works but is not perfect for what I want. A little more pondering and I found that Android 9 supports “Private DNS”. Turns out that it is a simply DNS over TLS. (DoT) That just makes this so much easier now.
