  1. If I try using NextDNS and ProtonVPN/Wireguard at the same time, will there be a clash between the two services for resolving DNS queries? Which DNS service will resolve queries in this configuration?

  2. How about NextDNS and MulvadVPN/Wireguard combo?

  How about

  If Access Control is enabled, the selected DNS in the profiles takes precedence. Otherwise, DNS over HTTPS (DoH) takes precedence over VPN DNS service. So if you configured NextDNS with DoH, then NextDNS will be used instead of the DNS from your VPN service.

  That said, you can override the behavior in the VPN client configuration by checking the “Force VPN DNS” box.
