Is there a VPN program with the ability to prescribe application and WWW address exclusions?

Question

openvpn

Hello!
There is a remote VPS with ubuntu. It has OpenVPN set up, but I can set up anything if needed and will solve my issue.
At the moment I'm using Proxifier with a regular SOCKS5 proxy. Some apps/games don't know how to use SOCKS5 and because of that they just don't work until I close Proxifier altogether. Even if I add them to the exceptions, they may not work. Or some sites do not "work" if the IP is not Russian, for example Yandex.Radio, but it's good that exceptions work fine here.
For a long time I wondered how to raise a full-fledged VPN with exceptions, but I did not find anything worthwhile, except for manually adding routes.
Actually, that's why I asked myself the question - is there some kind of software to which you simply write which application or which WWW address to exclude from the VPN tunnel and this happens?

You didn't specify an OS. If we are talking about a Windows client, then there is no ready-made software for this. If we are talking about Linux, then you can either use separate routing tables and direct different applications to different routing tables (using the owner module for iptables, for example), or using different network namespaces (ready-made functionality is in the firejail program).
Also, in principle, you can do non-standard routing using a DNS server, as done in the AntiZapret project
