With reference to this article: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Trusted_Recursive_Resolver

For network.trr.mode 3:

Note the use of "native resolver," a common term for the OS settings as in, for example, in Windows, Internet Protocol Properties under Ethernet Properties, the General tab.

Given that, what exactly is meant by "regular DNS"?

Thank you.
