Here are some related comments copied from #1722:

sergey-somkov The same issue on Ubuntu 23.10. Outline-Client.AppImage 1.12.1

alamar I have the same issue on Ubuntu

hapugov Same Ubuntu 23.10 Outline Version 1.12.1 (471860)

konstantin83 Same Ubuntu 23.10 Outline Version 1.12.1

Outline VPN is somehow working anyway. But those iternal reconnections every couple of seconds looks like a problem to me. Any chances for this bug to be fixed in nearest future?

righthippie There is a temporary solution to use Outline CLI VPN client. It work fine on Linux without reconnections. See https://github.com/Jigsaw-Code/outline-sdk/tree/main/x/examples/outline-cli

Still no fix for Outline GUI VPN client for new 6.x.x kernel. It reconnect every couple of seconds.

Not sure if related but if the connect/disconnect button is clicked while the state is connecting/disconnecting, it becomes unresponsive. Wouldn't it be better if the buttons were disabled if connecting/disconnecting? This prevents some android client issues too.

It seems like sometimes the GUI becomes out of sync with the state of the network. On windows, reconnecting happens if you're connected on outline and then you turn off wifi, for example.
