        You watched the wrong Youtube manuals!
        You're missing an outbound NAT rule for the VPN.

        First go to Interfaces > (assing), go down to "Available network ports" and select your OpenVPN client from the dropdown (e.g. ovpnc1) and hit the Add at the right. Then click on the new interface to open the settings and check Enable, enter a description and save it.

        Then go to Firewall > NAT > Outbound, select "Hybrid Outbound NAT" and hit Save.
        Add a new rule, select the VPN interface which you have added above, at sourve enter your LAN network, leave the other options at their defaults, enter a description if you want and save it.

        Now the internet access should work.
