How often are VPN servers in the overall pool replaced?

more options

Considering switching... my question is, I see that the claim of 280+ servers in 30+ countries, but how often do these rotate? The VPN I'm using currently assigns me IPs that on some sites have either been blocked or require extra security checks, like captchas. Probably because they're recognized as VPN servers, or maybe they are just so widely used, by so many users. I feel like regularly retiring servers out of the available pool and replacing them with new ones would solve this problem. How is this issue addressed?

Firefox's partner for Mozilla VPN is Mullvad, and only the WireGuard servers are used. You might be able to find an answer to your question on Mullvad's site:

Also, you can change servers in the client software when needed, assuming there are others in the relevant geographic area:
