All I've done so far is add the DNS server to my VPN, Mulvad, and run the install of Next DNS. I have not linked my ID with the OS and can't figure out how to do it. How do I link it? I can't figure out where to set it up. On Android I added to the PrivateDNS in settings. But in Parot OS I can't figure out where that is. I am so sorry to be such a newb here.

I have only experimented with Parrot OS in the past, however, changing the DNS would be about the same in most Linux distros. See if this helps. It's a tut for changing the DNS in Ubuntu, so it should get you on the green at least.

I figured it out! You had to run configuration after the terminal install. Now I'm cruising NSA free!
