It's less flexible than Mullvad. This new service is Wireguard-only, and as far as I can tell, requires you to use their custom app.

Mullvad additionally supports OpenVPN and other protocols, and is client-agnostic.

That's great - less features and options are a plus for vpn services.

Sounds odd, if it's just using wireguard.

Might be opinionated to support a high quality user experience.

Guard rails can be good depending on your audience.

I second this. My family uses ProtonVPN and their own app is so clean and simple that even my mother can use it.

They support OpenVPN for when that's needed.
