Here's what I do:

My local DNS resolver offers DNS, DNS over TLS, and DNS over
HTTPS.

I supply a use-application-dns.net zone that returns NXDOMAIN.
That tells browsers to not use DoH.

I build an adblocker zone via a script that grabs several public
lists, and those all return an address that is answered by a web
server that always answers with a 204 (No Content, success).
That's where you get to put your 14,000 addresses.

The adblocker zone gets rebuilt when I feel like it; otherwise,
I could put in a cron job to update it once a month or so.
