I love this delusion. Drama. Theatrics. Conspiracies. It’s giving e n t e r t a i n m e n t.

Not blocked on the DNS level. I have tried to use a DNS other than my ISP’s. They even go out of their way and use DPI (deep packet inspection) to scramble all internet traffic that resembles VoIP (which is banned here) and VPNs.

It’s a constant game of cat and mouse with VPNs to find one that works only for it to be scrambled/blocked shortly after subscribing to it. :(

I’ve even tried renting a server, installing CentOS and running OpenVPN but that got identified and scrambled like 5 days into running that server.

I can see posts and the text in a post using this lemmy.world account, but content hosted on lemmy.blahaj.zone like images/videos/memes won’t load.

Y’all are teasing :(.

The OpenVPN project was many years ago on CentOS, I haven’t dabbled in Linux distros for many years now and have no idea what distro would be ideal this kind of project today.

Duly noted about WireGuard! If they have a windows client that supports split tunnelling then I am definitely going to try AWS + WireGuard. Will look into it when I’m home.

Thank you for the advice!

What do you mean? Just install the plug-in PWAs for Firefox. I have a Firefox based WhatsApp PWA that runs separate from my main Firefox process. It launches on its own and uses the WhatsApp icon on the taskbar. (I was having so many issues with the official WhatsApp app).

It does have a dependency on a package you’ll have to install outside of FF but you can install it using Chocolatey so it’s pretty quick and easy.

Agreed! Although it still sucks to have to VPN just to look at 196 memes :sadpepe:
