Is a VPN needed with DNS over HTTPS and Encrypted Client Hello? (feddit.nl)

I was wondering if a VPN would add any kind of security or privacy if one is connecting to a host with a client/browser that supports DNS over HTTPS and that host supports encrypted client hello. Is there a way for the ISP or anything in between to shape traffic or even know what is being accessed? The only thing that should be visible is traffic between two IP addresses right?

But so does TLS right?

Yes, HTTPS traffic is encrypted also, but I wouldn’t trust that all of your activity online is hidden just because DNS and HTTPS are encrypted.

Up to you, but I use a VPN when online.
