Many Mullvad customers migrated from there to Mullvad in the first place after Kape Tech bought them.

Kape Tech , at the time, had a less than stellar reputation. I haven't followed it much since that time.

Private Internet Access stopped releasing source code for recent versions of its clients.

These days, free and open source software clients are table stakes for a VPN to be considered trustworthy. The fact that PIA silently stopped releasing source code after previously promising to do so is a major red flag.

You don't need to use their client. Just grab a config and use an OpenVPN or WireGuard client instead.
