limitations of Openvpn CE?
All our products builds on what we call the "OpenVPN Core". In essence, that is the OpenVPN 2.x project and the OpenVPN 3 Core library. This is the "low level" code which provides the core VPN functionality.

What is the difference between OpenVPN2.9 and OpenVPN3 Core
OpenVPN 3 (Core) is a complete rewrite and reimplements the OpenVPN protocol as a C++ library. The OpenVPN Connect (macOS, Windows) apps and OpenVPN 3 Linux project are all based on the OpenVPN 3 Core project. In addition, the OpenVPN 3 Core can be activated instead of OpenVPN 2.x on OpenVPN for Android. Currently all of these products and projects only implements the client side.

iOS Key Rotation Issue
OK I understand the issue now. Yes, I think we can improve the background key rotation to work in this case as well. I already opened a ticket and assigned it to the v2.10.0 release - https://github.com/ivpn/ios-app/issues/348.

Help us distribute free IVPN accounts for people in Ukraine and Russia
I was mistaken about the lack of workaround though. There is an option for iOS users to get connected - they can download the WireGuard app for example and set up a manual connection as described on the bottom of this page: https://www.ivpn.net/apps-ios/ This is a hoop non-technical folks might not be able to jump through. This is the best we can do now.
