Just so you’re aware why people are disagreeing with you - an installed browser does not change the behavior of HTTP calls made in other applications.

It’s not just a browser though, it also blocks trackers in other apps. Or is the DDG app lying when it shows all the trackers it’s blocking for each app?

Some few apps it literally breaks and need to have the tracker blocking disabled before they work again, so I’m pretty sure it’s doing something. It runs as a VPN afaict

If it does include a VPN provider, then you’re correct - it would work for other applications.

I don’t think it’s common knowledge for people who don’t have the app, so you may want to include information about that in your original post.
