Comment on How come TurboVPN can have double the amount of downloads compared to NordVPN and ExpresVPN? ++
billiam0202@lemmy.world 6 months agoYes, but Tor isn’t a VPN- the most distinguishing difference being when using a VPN all traffic from your device is sent to the VPN tunnel, while only traffic from the Tor browser is anonymized for the onion network.

Tor acts as a proxy Tor browser is shipped with tor but using a different port. Tor is not the browser.
So as long as you set up what you want to use with tor and remember to start it, it should work. Otherwise I’m sure you could setup a pi or local server to route everything through tor if you wanted to.
