Depending on what machine you're running with issues against. I got a work around by using YogaDNS and setting it to point to CloudFlare DNS, you can use any external DNS service to this affect.

So when I hit issues with NextDNS where my block list is too strict or it has to be amended but want to hit another website rather than wait for the allow list to update.

I launch YogaDNS so my DNS servers are temporarily changed, rather than disable NextDNS. Then I disable YogaDNS a few moments later when I expect my settings in NextDNS have updated/refreshed.

You still have the same problem, you have to remember to disable YogaDNS but I find it to be a lot easier, turning on and off the YogaDNS app.
