Agree, Mullvad provides really good VPN service. I faced almost zero downtimes / speed throttles. It establishes quick connection with server (maybe because it uses wireguard). Anyway, I'm a regular user and I think paying 5E worth it.

I'm actually kind of curious about what Wireguard does here. I think Wireguard says it's connected almost immediately even when it isn't, presumably holding traffic back locally while it waits for the connection to be active. I was wondering because I spent some time confused by a non-Mullvad Wireguard connection that wasn't working (turns out the server wasn't available at all) that nonetheless appeared as "connected".
network-manager UI, if I recall, just shows that the WG connection is turned on, not that there are packets coming back. (It's not a client-server, so this "makes sense")
Seconded. Very occasionally I'll have to swap servers in a location but that's super infrequent and it's not exactly a primary tier location that I'm using.
One of those things I can generally just setup and leave working.
