What happened:

Safing does not host a DNS server. You should choose one that you trust.

If i chose a DNS that is not brought with the encrypted SPN tunnel, will this not leak my activity to my ISP?

Not sure I understand the question compliantly.

If SPN is enabled the DNS requests will be routed through SPN.
If you are using secure DNS (the default one is) the ISP wont be able to see your activity even if the SPN is disabled.

I thought the spn works like a vpn but instead of using a single ip adress we can hop through multiple proxys and use many ips for all our different programs, even if the spn tunnel is encrypted cant my isp see my dns queries since the spn has no dns?
i am so confused.
