Currently in China (as a visitor). Wireguard literally just works (to a VPS). Mullvad works as a commercial provider, just slower. Xray-core (vless, Trojan) if you're paranoid. I have my own proxy over syncthing relays https://github.com/acheong08/syndicate which I use to proxy to my home in the UK (residential IP) without exposing any ports.

I get rate limited to around 10mbps in Chongqing. Was slightly higher in Beijing.

Does this offer any benefits over Tailscale and having an exit node at home?

I do have that as well. I've noticed that sometimes all network connections out of the country gets blocked. With syncthing, there are relays within China that can be used which may be in less restrictive provinces.

Kind of a best case, worst case scenario thing such that I can switch between as necessary. WireGuard best case, Xray-core fallback, syncthing worst case
