I don't recall what I've used, but I think it was something available in the Arch or Alpine repo. I typically try to avoid solutions that operate on the process, because detached processes may not actually use the proxy. Tinyproxy is one of my favorites for this. However, an alternative to proxychains-ng is tsocks. If you're looking for VPN solutions, then vopono is great.
