I've found their apps to be (subjectively) higher quality than most OpenVPN clients on platforms I care about (macOS, iOS, Windows). It's nice to have a consistent UI, and not have to think or care about specific profiles — it's easy for me to jump between servers much more easily (I typically connect relatively locally, but occasionally find that certain out IP addresses have been blacklisted from specific sites; it's trivial to "refresh" the connection to hop over to a different server and not have to think about it).

And, of course, easier (for me) to set up and configure. Maybe no _huge_ incentive to switch over to it if your setup works, but might be worth trying out if you're curious.

I would agree with a couple additional points. The first is that the app has a nice GUI that works across all platforms I'm interested in (mainly Linux) - but it also has a very handy CLI.

I've also found that the client devs respond to issues. This is great as well as I feel as though I'm getting a complete solution with Mullvad.

While I have no doubt Mullvad is great as a vanilla VPN without their client - I feel as though I'd be missing out on a few features and convenience items if I were forced to bring my own.

And to be clear - while Multihop is new, it's not new as in today. It's been out for a while in beta (if I'm remembering right) and landed in GA about a month ago. I don't see much need for it in my use case, but it's nice they're continually enhancing the overall product.

I'll +1 your anecdote with mine: that Mullvad's app is pretty great. It's very simple, isn't buggy, has just what's needed, and has a good UI. I'm pleased with it. Better than the others I've used.

I'll also +1 your anecdote that the Mullvad app is simple, convenient and stable.
