How to disable default cloudflare dns in cachyos?

It appears that when you install cachyos it uses cloudflare systemwide, inside cachyoshello in the dns settings you cannot choose no third party dns, I’d like to use my own DNS not a third party, how do I disable this?

No, we dont force any DNS. This is either set from your router, or you have manually forced it in the dns settings.

Thank you for your response, I’m not completely a noob, just to preface, I have adguard home with unbound ( unbound is also not pointing to cloudflare) running on a server in my home, so adguard home points to unbound, between them both, they just use my ISP dns, my openwrt router, just points to adguard home, the only device that is using cloudflare dns is my cachyos kde pc, I am testing and always do with What Is My DNS Server? Check Your DNS Server Address

When I click reset my dns in cachyos settings it appears to just use cloudflare and changing that to google as an example does show the change at the link I provided, it seems it’s just stuck on cloudflare.

Also, this is a fresh install of cachyos kde plasma, previously I was using gnome and never had this issue.

I believe you can manually add multiple IP DNS addresses in plasma IPv4 and 6 settings seperated by just a comma.

Just wanted to apologise, it was my own error of course, been using Cachy for 2 years now and never had any issues, love what you’ve done, thank you!
