Nat:
The post which you saw is a mess of DNS addresses. I have been able to
confirm that openvpn from the CLI works correctly with the protonvpn
config files. KingBeowulf has posted several times on this, including
his script file and it works well.
I would prefer to stay away from DNS over https (DOH) or DNS over tls
(DOT) if possible. (why? because I found that 3rd parties love to mess
with the browser javascript code and do things, so no, I won't have
Mozilla Firefox running out the door to grab whatever DNS it finds as
the nearest available)
When you look at the IPV4 spec (and IPV6 spec) no one factored in the
fact that we needed encrypted DNS, but here we are. In fact both specs
really are insufficient and never designed to do the job which we need
today.
I prefer to stay away from Cloudflare. They hide a lot of things. When I
went to file DMCA complaints, Cloudflare forced me to have to unravel
the actual websites hiding behind the Cloudflare cloudbank which was
more work for me.
Right now, my present scheme is working quite well. I set up an extended
run yesterday, left my computer connected to the internet with just one
VPN tunnel and everything went great (no DNS robbing or insertions)

Check out this:

It looks like you need to enable DNS-over-https or DNS-over-TLS?
Maybe cloudflared would help? There are instructions for installing it on
a pihole
