Tracker Control vs VPN : how to choose?

Not sure if it’s helpful but see this post on blocking trackers with it.

Got me a few older phones, flashed and rooted using Magisk. THIS write up you did is amazing! I am in App Manager testing. Now to test integration of DNS/VPN alongside the blocking of individual trackers. Thanks again for this!

Given that all but one of my setups are rooted I changed things up. TC is no longer used.
I use App Manager to block in-app trackers. InviZible has three modes, Root, VPN, and Proxy. I use a regular VPN service (IPVanish, Surfshatk, Mullvad, etc.) along with InviZible in root mode.
DNSCrypt is in use. TOR module is running. Sometimes I2P if needed. Any browser can access onion sites (no need for Tor Browser) transparently like any other site. No issues with sites throwing up captchas and whatnot like in my last setup.
Apps that have proxy settings can make use of them, thus routing data through InviZible and taking advantage of DNSCrypt and/or TOR.
