Consider me an absolute beginner. I’ve used Mullvad long before moving to Linux and on Windows it’s very easy to permanently exclude applications (split-tunnel).

On Linux it seems everytime I want to boot an app I have to go through Mullvad first to boot it just so it starts as a split-tunnel. This is obviously very tedious but is absolutely dreadful for certain apps that I have starting at boot that I need split-tunneled (for latency reasons)

Does anyone know how I can add a permanent split-tunnel flag or argument of some time to apps on Linux so that I don’t need to go through Mullvad to get them to split-tunnel?

I am using both Garuda Linux running KDE Plasma 6

And

ZorinOS 17 running GNOME
