Thank you a lot for your help, tried to run dnscrypt-proxy in docker, no way to get it work, installing in dietpi too risky for Friday evening … reinstalled unbound.

maybe better to try a simple native install instead of a docker container. Following this guide (German language) will bring up `dnscrypt-proxy` in less than 5 minutes [Anonyme DNS-Kommunikation mit Pi-hole und dnscrypt-proxy » DecaTec](https://decatec.de/home-server/anonyme-dns-kommunikation-mit-pi-hole-und-dnscrypt-proxy/)

To make it even more simple

```auto
cd /tmp
wget https://github.com/DNSCrypt/dnscrypt-proxy/releases/download/2.1.4/dnscrypt-proxy-linux_x86_64-2.1.4.tar.gz
tar -xf dnscrypt-proxy-linux_x86_64-2.1.4.tar.gz
mv linux-x86_64/ /opt/dnscrypt-proxy
curl -sSfL https://codeberg.org/DecaTec/dnscrypt-proxy-config/raw/branch/master/dnscrypt-proxy.toml -o /opt/dnscrypt-proxy/dnscrypt-proxy.toml
/opt/dnscrypt-proxy/dnscrypt-proxy -service install
systemctl start dnscrypt-proxy.service

```
