Should I use the native VPN client that the VPN provider offers or a Wireguard config?

Since the WireGuard tools and available configuration is limited (and rightly so, for simplicity), you may need to use your provider’s client/app for additional features.

E.g. for Mullvad

  • DAITA
  • Quantum Tunnels
  • Killswitch (as @JG mentioned), though that may be more reliably set up using a good iptables/nftables rule
  • Etc.

An example for Obscura: our base protocol is QUIC-based for better obfuscation (though we layer WireGuard on top of it), so you’d have to use the client/app to get that feature, though we do offer a WireGuard-compatible protocol as well.
