Trying to install VPN and these are the instructions Mullvad is giving me. This is ridiculous. There must be a more simple way. I know how to follow the instructions but I have no idea what I’m doing here. Can’t I just download a file and install it? I’m on Ubuntu.

    why tf wouldn’t OP be better served by a provided repo? Literally a add it to the sources.list and never think about updates again.

      Because installing some random app is worse than simply using pre-installed system service.

      Both are security audited, but I’d still rather trust OpenVPN.
