back when I used ubuntu derivatives I used privoxy and edited the config file to route all my traffic through tor.

I just did the same on debian 12.6 and wonder if there’s a better alternative.

      how does carburetor work? Do I simply activate it and that means all my traffic goes through tor? just like that? even if I open a terminal and sudo apt update, flatpak or yt-dlp something?

        You run carburetor and use it has a proxy for your internet. Ie go to network settings and fill out the ports for your connections in proxy

        (Not directly answering your question but) if it works like a VPN service then yeah. However, P2P connections might not be routed through TOR in that case. Be careful about that
