For something like that we could suggest writing a guide for setting up DNSCrypt at a router level, possibly utilizing a pi-hole.

In the past I have documented it here Unbound_DNS_forwarder_with_dnscrypt this setup runs a VPN at a router level, and puts all DNS traffic over it.

The question about this does come up from time to time:

Also DNSCrypt has a nice FAQ which explains the pros-and cons of each type of DNS encryption method, DoT, DoH, DNSCrypt's own protocol, DNS over SSH, DNS over QUIC etc.
