As you can see here, the latest installer requires 512mb of disk space. I'm primarily curious if this could be addressed. Hugely functional apps like OBS, Pages, Numbers require less disk space than Mullvad. What is taking up so much room?

This is discussed in the following issues as well:
#1572
#3085
electron/electron#2003

Short summary:
We use Electron which bundles Chromium and that takes up a lot of space.

I'll close this since it's a duplicate.
