literally was going through the exact same thoughts as you a couple a weeks ago, tried so many different configurations but the one i found that worked was actually kinda simple
basically they way i did was to run a gluetun docker container, and then in the environment variables pass in the the fact i wanted this to use the WireGuard VPN manager, and then i passed in my Proton VPN wireguard api key (you’ll need a subscription for this)
then once that gluetun container is up and running, you literally just add “network_mode: service:gluetun” to any other containers that you want to use this VPN
can you can even test its working by sending a curl command to an ip checking site from within those containers connected to gluetun
and then also try shutting down that gluetun vpn, and see if you other services (e.g. qbitorrent, still work)
