so long and thanks for all the fish.<p>I <i>love</i> wireguard and the configuration methods compared to openvpn.

This is a good decision all things considered, but there are plenty of hardware vendors with proprietary firmware that only support ovpn and now mullvad is unusable for them. I suppose the onus is on them to support wireguard, but still think of how long it took python3 to become standard after it was released, I hope to see wireguard become the standard soon but I expect lots of vendors will take their time on the transition.

Never been a Mullvad user, but namespaced-openvpn (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;slingamn&#x2F;namespaced-openvpn">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;slingamn&#x2F;namespaced-openvpn</a>) was one of the only ways to torrent-over-proxies that I found (years ago); user namespace with the torrent client &amp; openvpn as it&#x27;s only link out.<p>Not sure what else folks do for this use case.
