If you were looking for something other then an openVPN based VPN. Take a look at Tailscale or https://github.com/firezone/firezone which run Wireguard... Tailscale is nice however you don't manage the control plane.

How can I bypass extreme website restrictions in my university wifi?
Another good way is to set up your own VPN server on Digitalocean or something. Use a VPN protocol that is good at escaping detection. I recommend Outline VPN (getoutline.org). It's an open-source project that uses the Shadowsocks protocol and aims to provide censorship-free Internet to journalists in certain countries. It's not a VPN service so you need to set it up on your own server.

See https://github.com/Jigsaw-Code/outline-client/issues/1177, technically you don't need Outline Client, compatible Shadowsocks client like https://github.com/shadowsocks/ShadowsocksX-NG/releases should work too.
