Does anyone know how to use SagerNet or another FOSS app to achieve what is being done by Every Proxy in the NetGuard+pDNSf+VPN guide?
I've been looking into doing something similar and stumbled upon a method that uses personalDNSfilter with OpenVPN for personalDNSfilter, which is a special version of the OpenVPN for Android app.

Any way to get around a school firewall?
Idk if this really helps as you said that most vpns do not work but I'd suggest to check this website to get a .ovpn file and then connect to the vpn with an app like this one. You said you tried Tor Browser, but did you try with Orbot? (Supposing you're on Android as you replied to a comment saying that you use a Samsung)

Is there a vpn that is able to choose a random country instead of the fastest one?
How do you write a script for a vpn on android? I don't think you can do that. I know how to use Macrodroid and I got adb at least, maybe this can help https://github.com/schwabe/ics-openvpn/issues/548
There are other Android Python environments. I don't know about actually starting/stopping a VPN but there is this possible starting point: https://github.com/schwabe/ics-openvpn/issues/597
