What of theirs is written in C?

Eg: You buy a sub and just connect through wireguard. You aren't touching any AirVPN code (unless you want to use their client, which is not written in C, but you can just use the official wireguard client or any other tool to connect).

Same goes for any provider as far as I'm aware. Am I wrong?

Maybe I misread your comment, I thought you were talking about AirVPN vs Mullvad.

Anyways the C code in that repo looks like it's just libraries they have vendored in, not specifically stuff they are writing (which a lot of apps do, but usually dont include directly in their repos), but I could be wrong didn't look that hard.

And you can still always use a different client (I know you can with AirVPN, I assume ivpn is the same).
