I don’t know the limits of the mullvad client but you might want to look into split tunneling and just allow steam (or whatever program) to avoid the VPN… the privacy benefits are going to be marginal, the latency and download speed penalties will be blatantly obvious.
Comment on Mullvad slowing down internet
strawberry@artemis.camp 9 months agoyea latency was like 30ms so good enough. 150mbps is usually plenty, I'll just be turning it off when downloading a game for example

As dark ark say, the official mullvad app allows split tunneling. I have split tunneling enabled for things where I am logged in with my real identity. No point hiding my IP from steam when they have my credit card number with my name.
