So, you've notice you don't have the ability to add custom server to your console, thats fine, there is a fix to help you get in quickly
You simply need to setup DNS servers in your internet settings for your console which will allow you to connect to any of the featured servers but instead of going into them you are transported to a custom forwarding server
This setup is provided by Bedrock Connect on github: https://github.com/Pugmatt/BedrockConnect/
You can follow the video below for the console your connecting from
There is one thing I will note personally here
if you are on XBOX use "104.238.130.180" as primary DNS
if you are on PS4/PS5 use "45.55.68.52" as primary DNS
for your secondary DNS on all platform I recommend setting it to "1.1.1.1" for the best speed, this will set any non minecraft server connections to go through cloudflare which can improve your other games loading speed
