A couple of days ago i noticed something off with blahaj.zone. I couldn’t see images posted by users on blahaj, so i thought it was a problem on their side.
Well guess fucking what? After 3 days, it was STILL broken, so i opened it and…
Blocked. They fucking blocked blahaj.zone. Actually beyond parody🤦♂️ Why? What was the point? there’s trans content literally everywhere on lemmy. what’s next, block them all? So now if i want to see a post by a user on blahaj, i have to turn on my VPN (protonvpn.com is also blocked in saudi, jfc) just to see it. Fuck this place. 🙄
I swear a couple of days ago it worked. This is a mild annoyance (hence the community) but still.
It’s so over guys, MBS said no more 196 😔
Ah, it works for me now. I just ran it with ping instead of globalping, since i had no need to run it with that. And the script didn’t work after i did that, i’m not great at shell-scripting.
I made a modification that prints the status, but it’s painfully slow to check each site.
What do you use now? Curl? wget?
Globalping, just as you wrote it with the limit being 1
That should work.
I started working on a rewritten version in Rust that uses the REST API instead of the CLI tool. Once it’s done, it should be a lot faster, since it can make multiple requests simultaneously. I also plan to use this for other stuff in other countries.
