We have been waiting for years for UDP OpenVPN, but we get WireGaurd before most major distros. That's something

Actually, WireGuard has first class support now on a large number of distros, without the need for any additional compilation: Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04, 20.04, Fedora, Debian, OpenSUSE, Arch, Mandriva, Alpine, Nix, Void, OpenWRT, and others. Check out www.wireguard.com/install/ for the whole list.
AFAIK most of these are DKMS, so compilation (although automated and supported by distro) is still necessary.
At least it will eventually propagate to all distros now that it's in the stable kernel!

Fedora and other distros with recent kernels already have it.

Even windows
Indeed but now the problem is this Version 7 will likely be in beta for many more years to come...
RouterOS 7 finally supports UDP OpenVPN so at least that's something.
I don't follow, open on does work on UDP.
Mikrotik's OpenVPN implementation is missing UDP support.
Ah, I see. That's bad.
