Interesting, because @dtannock it seems to work, even though it might be bad.

I mean…if something has the intended effect…then it works!

And, I got it to work! Here’s my config:

            prismlauncher #minecraft launcher
          
            # messaging apps

            vesktop
            signal-desktop
            telegram-desktop
          ];
          
          # virtualization
          virtualisation.virtualbox.host.enable = true;
          virtualisation.virtualbox.guest.enable = true;
          virtualisation.virtualbox.guest.dragAndDrop = true;
          users.extraGroups.vboxusers.members = [ "melty" ];
          virtualisation.virtualbox.host.enableHardening = false;
          
          # mullvad vpn
          services.mullvad-vpn.enable = true;
          services.mullvad-vpn.package = pkgs.mullvad-vpn;
