Firefox Multi-Account Containers
1 project | /r/ITProTuesday | 25 Nov 2022

Firefox Multi-Account Containers divides your browsing into separate color-coded tabs. Allows you to set up proxies and then assign each proxy to a container. Thereafter, each request coming from a particular tab in the container will use the appropriate proxy. electricheat explains, "I use [it] all the time. Either for different accounts, or for having certain tabs use certain proxy configurations."

I don't have a solution, but a potential part of a solution. If you're using Firefox, this addon allows to chose different proxies (and hence different IPs) for different containers. Should you find one Mullvad server that works (perhaps one that was recently added), you could make sure that your Netflix container always goes through that server, regardless of what server the app is connected to.
