Can you create a complete video demonstrating the entire process from installation to reproducing the encountered issue during usage?

Maybe you made the same mistake as me, please check the following settings: Image

It is necessary to enable the option [Block domains using filters and hosts files] in the [General Settings], then [DNS reites] can work.

The feature switches and detail options aren't on the same page, which is kinda confusing.
