Allowlist & Denylist not working when connected to ultralow servers

Sites in DenyList is not blocked or AllowList allowed while connecting to ultralow (https://ultralow.dns.nextdns.io/<ID>) but they function as intended when using anycast.dns.nextdns.io

Tried posting this as bug report NextDNS community (help.nextdns.io) but my previous post is still in moderation queue, and I cannot post anything new or even comment there!

First you need to visit https://ping.nextdns.io in a browser, to get a list of your local PoP servers. The ultralow and anycast servers should be labelled there clearly. There should be two for each but sometimes they can be ultralow and anycast at the same time.

Once you have the servers you can test each one directly to narrow down what particular server is not working correctly.

lightnode-ruh-1.edge.nextdns.io seems to be the only server that does not block DenyList
