I used Mullvad’s guide to change the DNS in Linux Mint and it worked. But I have a question about Firefox’s DNS over HTTPS settings. Can I turn it to off now that the whole operating system uses the Mullvad DNS?

Afaik you should be able to. You could always try it and check your IP at a dns leak test site.
I checked it. I used the
adblock.dns.mullvad.netoption and adblocking works fine on all browsers without using adblock extensions. The checker on Mullvad’s website shows the DNS info as it should. I think maybe there’s no need for Firefox DNSoH settings anymore because the whole OS uses Mullvad DNS now. But I don’t know enough about DNS to be sure.
