Grüß euch, ich bin aktuell beim Ausprobieren von ein paar Android Apps. Dabei hab ich bemerkt, dass ich mich in manchen nixht auf feddit.org einloggen kann. Das betrifft https://f-droid.org/de/packages/app.vger.voyager und https://f-droid.org/de/packages/xyz.blorpblorp.app (bis jetzt). Beide melden leider nur vage Verbindungsprivleme beim Login. Andere Lemmy-Apps funktionieren, und auxh andere Instanzen lassen sich auf den beiden o.g. Apps problemlos aufrufen. Voyager hat vor einer Zeit sogar noch funktioniert (1-2 monate her), ich hatte also ursprünglixh die App und nicht feddit im Verdacht.

Mir würde jetzt nur User Agent Filtering auf feddit.org einfallen, was das verursachen könnte. Wird sowas von euch aus gemacht oder habt ihr andere Ideen?

Danke und SG!

I'm the dev behind Blorp. I would love to get this resolved. Does feddit.org work if you login as a guest? Or is it completely broken?

See "Continue as Guest" below:

I don't see that option. I clicked on the "login/signup/change instance", selected feddit.org, and got this:

This is blorp 1.9.26 from fdroid.

That’s helpful! Before it shows the guest option, it makes a request to see if the instance is private. This means that initial request is failing.

Out of curiosity, are you using a VPN? Sometimes that will cause requests to fail.

No vpn. I am using netguard(local firewall using the android vpn api) with blorp completely whitelisted

I’m not quite sure then. Maybe the feddit.org admins have some insight into what could cause a request to fail. I know a lot of servers are configured to block AI crawlers. Maybe whatever protections they have setup are too aggressive.

Unfortunately I’m having a hard time recreating the issue myself. One I can recreate a bug, it’s much easier to solve.

That was my thought as well. Thanks for trying to help anyways. It's a shame, cause i liked blorp the most from my short time trying it with the default instance.
