Tailscale and Mullvad (VPN company) advertise their compatibility and there is an article that goes into further detail. Of course it’s also possible to setup Wireguard yourself and use a VPN service.
I have a Wireguard network setup for my devices that routes through my somewhat distant server. I find when I have both it and Tailscale open, Tailscale tries routing through Wireguard even though both devices might be on the same LAN. Unfortunately I don't believe Tailscale has a way to forbid it from routing over other VPNs or networks.
I have a Tailscale subnet router set up locally and added the remote IPs to my router. Tailscale on every device was a crapshoot as to whether it would route locally or through the VPN.
I asked support and they said it should be on every device. Could be something else on my network forcing it to act like that but I don't have enough give-a-shit in me to troubleshoot it.
As much as this would be super neat, I just paid for the Proton subscription... having me reconsider though :P
