Sometimes I look up my IP address on sniperinfo.net or other sites, and it seems that it's usually through Tor traffic, but sometimes it's not.
How can I always Torify these software?
Also, what are the inherent risks of Torifying these three particular pieces of software?

I often use MullvadVPN over in conjunction with it.

By the way, is it possible to find out the IP address of the proxy I'm using in the terminal?

Have you considered just routing *you entire traffic* through tor[1]? This should work better, although it might be difficult to set it up to additionally route through a VPN... (but not imposible if you're not afraid of some commands like `ip route')

As to checking the IP address in a terminal - you can check your machine's LAN addresses with something like:
$ ip addr show

There's no direct way to learn the external address, though (the one you have on the outside of the NAT). The best you can do is query a service that reports the address. From console you could do something like:
$ curl https://infosniper.net

Or if you don't want to lose your senses from looking at raw html without syntax highlighting, you could instead do something like:
$ curl https://infosniper.net/ 2>/dev/null | grep -Eo 'the IP [0-9.:]*' | grep -oE '[0-9.:]*'

It's probably not what you wanted, though :/

Just use Tor Browser any time you want to torify.

No particular risks, but because your browser can be fingerprinted, you aren't really anonymous. So it's self-defeating. The Tor browser will remove the ability to fingerprint and at the same time will anonymize your traffic through the Tor network.
