redsocks

I don't think you can generally expect all processes to transparently use a SOCKS proxy? You might be able to finagle a custom vpn around it, I suppose. But AFAIK SOCKS isn't 100% transparent at the IP layer allowing all protocols to transparently layer on top? I guess SOCKS5 handles tcp and udp - so you might get away with redsocks (which explicitly recommends against using with TOR): https://github.com/darkk/redsocks See also transocks (SOCKS4 tcp only): https://transocks.sourceforge.net And transocks (in go) https://github.com/cybozu-go/transocks Ed: see also https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30684574

Second this. I haven't tried proxychains. iptables with redsocks[1] for redirection works pretty nice. [1] https://github.com/darkk/redsocks

How is this different to https://github.com/darkk/redsocks/ ? I am just asking because I have been using redsocks for a very long time and I am always open to improve things.

Sorry for off topic, but is there any way, how to setup wireguard (or any VPN) to be used for just single app (lets say Firefox) and not system wide on macOS? Something similar to https://github.com/darkk/redsocks with ssh and setting up proxy in Firefox?

What's the difference between that and https://github.com/darkk/redsocks ? Edit: why the downvote? I thought I asked a legit question...?

I use ssh -D along with https://github.com/darkk/redsocks to get system wide transparent tunneling working. Using iptables you can do per user, process etc. Works with every application :)
