One way "to combine DoH with resolving 14,000 addresses to 127.0.0.1"
is by using Pi-hole. Some people have *millions* of domains blacklisted
in Pi-hole:

https://www.reddit.com/r/pihole/comments/rrcmfk/why_am_i_making_a_personal_commitment_to_donating/
https://www.reddit.com/r/pihole/comments/7rzdzj/how_many_domains_do_you_have_on_your_setup/
https://www.reddit.com/r/pihole/comments/hkfyu4/domains_on_blocklist/

etc.

and using DoH with Pi-hole is well documented:
