Wireguard is blocked in my country, so I no longer can use Tailscale or other Wireguard-based solutions. My home server is behind a NAT. What other ways of secure private connection can I use?

If you get a Mikrotik router it comes with a back to home VPN server and a dedicated DDNS.

You need to know a bit about network configuration, although the setup wizard is sufficient for most use cases.

When you enable to BTH VPN, it does all of the configuration for you. And it works for me behind a double NAT

I believe the back to home VPN from MikroTik is also wireguard. At least it is on mine. No idea if you can use a different VPN solution with it.
