Software Recommendations Asked on February 11, 2021
There used to be an experimental feature in chrome://flags
where you can set your own DNS servers for Google Chrome to use (maybe in Chrome OS only?). This feature is now gone (pretty annoying).
Is there a Google Chrome extension that can do something similar to this so I can make Chrome use Google’s public DNS servers or my own custom DNS settings?
Below is an image on how it used to look like on Chrome OS:
This is the correct answer, go to google chrome settings > Advanced > Security
search DNS and enter with customized: https://1.1.1.1/dns-query
you will get DNS over https

The 1.1.1.1 DNS Server is a partnership between Cloudflare and APNIC.
Setting up 1.1.1.1 on Windows PC takes two minutes and requires no technical skill or special software. Even if you’re a computer novice

DNS Overrider seems to be an extension that might do what you want, but reading the reviews and the details of it, I don't get a positive feeling towards it. However to set up a custom DNS server, you don't need to do it on your browser. You can set it on your operating system, and maybe that's why Google has decided to remove it from Chrome's settings.
Assuming you're on a Windows machine, you'll need to do this:
Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center
Then from the left panel select "Change adapter settings".
A new window will open, listing you all the network connections that you have (i.e. Ethernet, WiFi, etc.).
Select the one you're using to connect to the Internet, and right click on it and select "Properties".
In the list from the opened dialog, scroll down to select either of these options depending on what IP version you're using (typically IP v.4):
Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6)
(or)
Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)
Without unchecking the item, click on "Properties" button, and manipulate the DNS Server from the second section in this dialog:
And then confirm and save all the changes you've applied.
I always keep my DNS servers custom, which somewhat optimizing several factors. The addresses used in the screenshot are Open DNS addresses.
