Does NextDNS support any listening port other than 53?

My ISP captures port 53, is there another port I can use for NextDNS?

Like OpenDNS supports 443 and 5353.

Quad9 supports 9953

Adguard supports 5353.

Planning to use the port in my dd-wrt's dnsmasq options like-

no-resolv
bogus-priv
strict-order
server=45.90.30.0#port
server=45.90.28.0#port
add-cpe-id=xxxxxx

    https://help.nextdns.io/t/x2hmvas/what-is-dns-over-tls-dot-dns-over-quic-doq-and-dns-over-https-doh-doh3

    "DoT and DoQ use a custom ports (tcp/853 and udp/8853 respectively) which can be easily blocked by firewalls while DoH uses the same port and protocol as used for all HTTPS web traffic (tcp/443), making it harder to block or even detect. DoH3 uses udp/443"

      NextDNS is that still the case? 

      > dig www.google.com -p 5353 @dns.nextdns.io +tcp
