I have added this as an updated post to my last thread but I feel maybe having a standalone post will be better in case anyone is having the app working right now.
before mullvad-vpn went from 2025.7 to 2025.13 it was simply not working as in the VPN would not connect to any servers and the UI was unresponsive on many areas of the apps (as in unable to use certain toggles etc) after the 2025.13 update it started working again but after a while it just went back to being like it used to be.
I decided to start mullvad-vpn from the terminal and got the following logs:

is this also happening with anyone else? is it a problem of packaging or is it a problem on my computer.
I’m currently on kernel 6.12.64 and here is my current config file
