Hello. For some reason I don’t have access to slrpnk.net and feddit.org. I tried to connect from another IP and it worked. My IPv4 is 89.169.34.191. Is it banned on these instances?

There seems to be a complete down of feddit.org right now, I get 504 errors trying to connect.

Well, static routes did the job. Now both site are accessible. I hope admins of these instances won’t tell KGB my IP.
Hi, feddit.org admin here. We are currently blocking multiple regions due to very aggressive scraping done by companies, such as Alibaba. I will forward this post to our team, to find out the exact reason to why you’re blocked.
Blocking whole regions sounds like overkill. Just block the alibaba subnets. We do the same on our end. If you want I can provide you the cidr ranges.
It’s definitely overkill. Every time I come across a feddit.org image, it’s just broken on my end :/
Really?? I thought I was the only one with this problem. It’s been on going for months.
I’m glad to hear I’m not an obscure exception, I hope they fix this.
Where are you from? I’m from India and https://feddit.org/ doesn’t open for me. The connection gets timed out.

Feddit.org as I said blocks most of Asia for some reason, I talked to the admin before and they told me they’ll fix it soon. It’s been like this for a few months sadly
it’s not exactly the entire regions, but a large chunk of prefixes from asian regions.
we’re currently working on some infrastructure changes that will allow more granular blocking for feddit.org, separating it from the blocking used for other fediverse foundation services, as currently all fediverse foundation services are sharing the same blocklist.
