Virgin Media blocking Lemmy? - eviltoast

Morning all. Unsure where to post this, so here I am…

Anyone here on Virgin Media having difficulty accessing Lemmy content (I’m on lemmy.world)?

Started a couple of days ago, tested with my pi-hole off so I know its not that. The only way I can access is mobile data.

Cheers.

    I’m on VM and not had a problem. Lemmy.world has had some issues over the last few days though, I’ve had to log out and log back in again a few times.

    Late response but I got to the root of the issue. Lemmy (well, lemmy.world) wasn’t being cached by Quad9’s DNS servers.

    I tested by using different DNS servers (OpenDNS) which worked fine, then permanently resolved it by installing unbound on my pihole and using that instead.

    Tl;dr it was DNS

    It’s always DNS

    Can’t say I’ve noticed owt here (outside of the ddos stuff over the weekend obviously). There was a thing where everyone had to log out and back in, including on mobile apps, when lemmy.world upgraded to 0.18.2 but that was a while ago now so probs not that if it’s just started.

    Hmm, not sure what else to suggest really!
