I’m using DuckDuckGo’s app tracking protection button. It shows as VPN on top of the homescreen.
Yes, DDG does offer VPN as part of their Privacy Pro subscription. https://duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/privacy-pro/vpn/what-is-vpn/
The DDG Android browser includes the App Tracking Protection feature which, while not a VPN, uses the local Android VPN port to block app tracking. https://duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/p-app-tracking-protection/is-app-tracking-protection-a-vpn/
That VPN option is also grayed out on my Poco M5 (HyperOS).
