Does NextDNS really support DNSCrypt?

When I copy the DNSCrypt (sdns) address showing under https://my.nextdns.io and paste it into https://dnscrypt.info/stamps/ it translates into an ordinary DoH-address pointing to my profile. Is this correct?!

Does NextDNS support true DNSCrypt-protocol/connections since this seems to be a "shortcut" just doing DoH?

    The DNSCrypt client supports the DoH protocol. The DNSCrypt protocol never took off. It is unlikely we ever support it.

      NextDNS Got it and 100% agree... Was mostly curious if it was a "bug" and not planning to use it.

       Hi. So I manage six Unifi sites for my family across the US. Unifi's latest release supports DNS over HTTP. I have a custom NextDNS profile for my brother's UDR. I copied the CryptDNS Stamp from his profile's setup page, and pasted all of the settings in the appropriate spot. I got an error initially, but that resolved after rebooting the UDR. 

       

      I did the same thing for my UDM Pro Max, with my own custom NextDNS profile. Received the same error. But on mine, the error did not resolve with reboot. I've been using https://dnscrypt.info/stamps/ to generate new stamps, with no success.

       

      Can you please explain the exact settings I need to plug into the website to generate the correct CryptDNS Stamp?

       

      Thank you for your help.
