Mullvad split tunneling with Jellyfin - Prophecy - 2025-05-26

Has anyone been able to get split tunneling working with mullvad vpn on Linux? Following all of the directions on the Mullvad website seems to do nothing. Is there something special about Jellyfin that prevents split tunneling?

Linux Distro: EndeavourOS

After months of trying i finally read through the advanced guide on Mullvads website properly and was able to get remote access working while Mullvad was enabled

And scrolling down to "Allowing incoming traffic (for servers)"

Save the file as 'excludeTraffic.rules' then run the following command sudo nft -f excludeTraffic.rules

This works.

Followed instructions but upload speed is abysmally slow (10s of KiB/s) when Mullvad is on with the split tunnel enabled. Anyone have an idea why that would be? Works fine with Mullvad off.
