I read a bit about using a different DNS for Privacy and I think the best one should be quad9? Or is there anything better except self hosting a DNS?

As far as I read (I'm no expert!) they could check the SNI of the TLS handshake if they want. But using the DNS of the ISP is handing them the data right in a way they can analyze/use them very easily afaik?

Still learning about this topic!

They route your traffic, hence they can see all IP addresses you communicate with. With a reverse lookup you can then usually find out the address too.
