lemmy.zip is blocked in the UK
Time for Mullvad VPN?
I haz a vpn thanks. I was just bringing attention to how it is shown yet can't see it. Schroedingers Post I shall call it
Oh I see what you're talking about. I thought you meant the link to fffmpegs forgejo site rather than the crosspost link.
Maybe it's just the app I'm using, but sync was able to redirect me to the Open source community that this was originally posted to. (It's hosted on lemmy.ml, but the poster is from Lemmy.zip, which is why the post link is Lemmy.zip).
When I open via browser though, I see the OSA block that you're referring too... An interesting difference for sure. But I suppose if all posts from lemmy.zip were blocked, we wouldn't be seeing this one either, so I'm guessing it's just post shares that won't work?
Well it seems that the title is fetched and when you click to visit then it is geoblocked...
I mean I get the idea, and it is fine (if I wanted to I'd magically move to another country) but it was more a point that federation for geoblocked stuff is kinda borked (not in a bad way)
