That's quite fascinating, didn't realize Wireguard could be blocked in that way (although the WG traffic is pretty obvious looking, so it makes sense). The only solution I know of without a need for a VPS is hosting everything on Tor. Wildly private and secure, but also wildly slow. Beyond that, there are a number of ways of using a VPS to similar effect, I know people have used Cloudflare Tunnel to similar effect in the past.
Also, there are apparently quite a number of wiregaurd derivatives which protect better against detection and blocking methods. amnezia and wstunnel are the two that came up. Likewise, you will need a VPS, and might even be able to set up a tailscale-like coordination server that way (maybe with headscale, or maybe with one of its competitors like NetBird).
ZeroTier might also get the job done, but I really don't know much about it.
Hope this helps, and good lucks!
Thanks! I do have a VPS. Can amnezia or wstunnel be used with headscale? That'd be amazing
In theory yes, in practice, I have no idea. My guess is you would need to soft-fork the project to get it using either project, or maybe be really, really nice to the devs and ask them to support additional protocols. Technically there is no reason it wouldn't work, but whether or not there are enough people with your usecase for devs to justify implementing a new feature is another matter entirely.
