I want firefox on my laptop to only go through a VPN and the easiest solution I came up with is forcing firefox SOCKS5 Proxy Docker Container which goes through a Mullvad gluetun docker container. I connect to my home server via tailscale

Browser < -tailscale- > SOCKS5 Docker < — > gluetun Docker < — > Internet

Is that a good idea? It seems a little overengineered, but simpler than running two VPNs on one machine?

Thanks

    I think I’m missing something…why bother with SOCKS5 if you’re using a gluten container? I’ve never done what you’re trying to do, but I’d assume gluten by itself is the solution
