How are Mullvad apps across multiple platforms? I've been with PIA for quite a while, and I got it to work they way I want it, on macOS, windows and android, and I liked even more some of their recent exit points marked "for streaming", as I watch sports online, and there is a significant improvement when using those, with some countries local free broadcasting, but performance in the rest , sometimes, is really atrocious. I am just concerned about trading performance gain for tweaks/options/stability on multiple platforms (never found OpenVPN to be better, at least when it comes to PIA apps).

The ios app reviews of PIA says it's now owned by a company which used to make malwares. I'm really happy with PIA as compared to Mullvad. Works better for me but this review is making me feel unsafe :(

The PIA app is lovely. Mullvad's as well

I used mullvad for streaming sports in Australia being in Europe at the time, no problem streaming in full HD. My machine is running linux although I doubt that makes a difference.
I use it on Mac, Windows, and iOS - they just work well.
used it on macos, ios, linux. the app is solid. wireguard rules.
I use the app frequently on Android and Arch Linux, and it works equally well on both.
