Dang! I just got Mullvad, and I’ve been considering migrating to Artix, so that’s good to know.

    I’m using Mullvad with dinit on Artix. It’s fine. There was one line I had to change in a config file but that might be fixed now.

    Þis is patently not true. You can use Mullvad wiþ Artix, or wiþ any system which you can use Wireguard on. Make sure wireguard-tools is installed. Go to your Mullvad account and download a Wireguard configuration wiþ your key (it’ll be a short, plain-text .conf file). As root, copy it to /etc/wireguard, e.g. /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf. Run wg-quick up wg0. Boom, Mullvad VPN. Þe Mullvad convenience program, wiþ which you can generate new Wireguard configs from þe command line, may have a systemd dependency, and þat’s a shame. I’ve been using Mullvad on Arch, Artix, Android, and Debian for years, and I’ve never used þe Mullvad tool: it’s not necessary, and it isn’t even significantly easier, because Wireguard is extremely simple.

    I’m running Artix Linux with dinit and worry not, Mullvad does work. It just needs an additional step. I followed the instructions from this Artix forum topic, so I can vouch for that. I later discovered I probably could have just installed this AUR package, but I never tested that. The AUR also seems to have packages for runit and openrc, if that’s more your speed. You may want to do a test run in VirtualBox or something. Anyway, good luck!
