For Mullvad users who solely rely on the OpenVPN protocol like me, in a year's time
[roughly], WireGuard will be the only protocol on Mullvad:
Removing OpenVPN 15th January 2026- Considering that I have to switch to another provider soon, I wonder if someone could also recommend a good VPN for online gaming (NordVPN was awful while Mullvad is somewhat okay).wireguard is the superior protocol over OpenVPN.
much less lines of codebase make it more auditable to find bugs, its also faster and more modern.
OpenVPN has a huge codebase, its slow and clunky.
