It’s working with my nord VPN I haven’t blocked anything around VPNs so not sure what’s going on here
Would you mind sharing a screenshot and possibly a console log of the issue if you can?
DONE. I sent you private messages.
I can access it fine through Mullvad, maybe it's your particular VPN
It seems to be a problem with ProtonVPN.
Sshhh. Don't let them know they need to block Mullvad tunnels too!
But in all seriousness it works for me through Mullvad as well. I wonder what other VPNs they have blocked.
Interesting. If I switch ProtonVPN on, “server cannot be found” for feddit.uk. Even if I set the VPN to UK server.
No VPN - loads fine.
I have clarification from ProtonVPN about what the problem is with accessing Feddit.uk. They have a service called NetShield which blocks IP addresses associated with malware and trackers. There is a false positive for Feddit.uk. Their team is aware of it, and will hopefully fix it. In the meantime, people can access Feddit.uk using ProtonVPN by turning NetShield off. It works for me.
That sounds like a Proton problem with their DNS maybe. I wonder what happens if you override the DNS to something like Quad9?
Can confirm. I just tried with proton VPN and got a DNS error.
It’s an issue with NetShield. If you have NetShield off, you can access Feddit.uk. They seem to be working on a fix, though.
Yeah that worked, thanks for following that up!
