Using Rethink DNS app btw, I want to use a firewall and VPN at the same time on Android. Wtf?!?
So my IP has somehow just been leaking all this time…

are you using DNS-over-TLS?
i don’t use nextDNS app. Is nextDNS app using nextDNS by default?
i had to try different configurations to get what you’re trying to get (firewall + vpn without leaks)
I manually copy pasted mullvad’s DNS into DNS over TLS
which vpn are you using?
Mullvad
you should contact their support because it seems to be the vpn connection that fails
I mean, when I use the official Mullvad app, this doesn’t happen, but only when I use Rethink DNS app.
I would just use the official app, but Android only allows one VPN at a time, and “Firewall” apps count as a VPN, so… Rethink DNS is the only app that combines both… 🤷♂️
you don’t need to “combine both”, like i wrote under a different comment here, you can use a firewall and connect it to your vpn through SOCKS5
