How annoying is it to connect to VPN/use Tailscale instead of being able to access the service directly?

For an external VPN like mullvad, I run my own proxy. Again it’s only available from my VPN or inside my network.

It uses socks5 and gluetun docket containers and in apps that support proxies, I can add my proxy to it and it’ll route that traffic through the paid VPN.

Or, a work profile (see shelter) or androids new private spaces.

If you have private spaces, it uses a seperate network. So if you have a VPN installed outside the private space, it won’t work on apps inside the space.

So, what you could do is have a paid VPN inside private spaces, and use it and a web browser or whatever there, and use your server’s VPN outside the private space.

Lmk if you want any of my docker composes

This sounds very interesting. I always wondered if I could use a paid VPN together with Tailscale or Netbird. But I’m not sure I understood how you set this up. And what are Android private spaces?

I have gluetun+socks5 containea running, then in an app, I put in localip:port into a proxy field. Then that app will use that connection for internet.

Browsers on desktop also support proxies. So if you want a specific browser to always use the VPN, this is a very simple way to do that.

Thank you for pushing me into the rabbit hole. But gluetun already has a socks proxy server built in, if I read that correctly on their github.
