Honestly, it may have nothing to do with the browser.

For instance at&t's newest fiber gateway (bgw320-500/505, 3-4 years old at this point) has a known issue that bypasses pihole for all Wi-Fi devices. Such that only hardwired devices can utilize its DNS services. Even with the pihole acting as DHCP server
