OpenVPN Community client can be run from command line, and is scriptable. Minuspoints are that you lose all Nord-specific options like Quick Connect, Kill Switch, all speciality servers (unless you find correct config files), NordLynx protocol. Pluspoint are that OVPN clients are quite a lot quicker than Nord's own, and you can save your login credentials i.e. Both work, Connect is maybe a bit simpler. The configuration files are here and instructions here. One possibility is using OpenVPN Connect- or Community client instead of Nord's. I've never had to touch the kill switch, tho - are you sure it's actually off in the settings? The Linux client can at times be a bit cranky. Especially annoying as I've not had to login with the MacOS client since 2019, if not longer.
But it is what it is, and won't be changing. I talked to Nord about that when they moved to web-based login.
