Tor Proxy over VPN on AOSP-based OS?

I spent a little time checking to see if there was a good alternative, and I think you can:
- Install Orbot + some WireGuard app that supports running as a SOCKS or HTTPS proxy like IIUC WG Tunnel.
- Set up the WireGuard app to connect to your WireGuard server (Mullvad, IVPN, etc.).
- Make sure the WireGuard app is set to run in proxy mode.
- Set Orbot as the system VPN.
- Go to “Orbot Settings” > “Outbound Network Proxy” and configure the proxy settings to whatever you chose in step 3.
- Done?
The main issue here is that it requires raw WireGuard, so if you need e.g. censorship resistance features in the VPN app, you may be screwed. There’s probably some VPN apps that support running as a proxy though, and maybe you could chain it through another proxy that supports Hysteria or something in that case?
You’d also need to use split tunneling to exclude the WireGuard app, so you couldn’t use “block all connections without a VPN” or whatever it’s called.
