They are fixing this next weekend

we are also lifting the extensive IP blocks for certain "problematic" network ranges - feddit.org will thus be fully accessible again worldwide. The issues where images from feddit.org might not load on other instances should also be resolved.

Oh, transparent background. Very friendly.

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

There are several "feddit"s, just fyi.

It's specifically feddit.org. exactly the one where it looks like you created the account, I cannot load images from there on my lemmy feed for some reason, .do you mind if I use your feed as an example?

feddit just announced that these problems should disappear two weeks from now. https://feddit.org/post/24855903

I am gonna be able to see this post after 2 weeks😭

[–] bleistift2@sopuli.xyz 3 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

Man, I’m retarded. Let me quote it for you.

Maintenance Schedule

On Friday, January 30, 2026, the IP address for feddit.org will change from 146.255.56.83 to 146.255.56.93 over the course of the day.

The reason for this is that we are moving the entire instance to a new Kubernetes cluster. The migration will proceed as follows: in the first step, we will make feddit.org accessible on both IPs in parallel (the data backends for text and images are identical and accessible from both the old and new clusters).

We will then monitor how many accesses are still occurring via the old IP address and decide when we can completely shut down the old cluster. Currently, a transition period of about one week is planned. This should make the migration transparent for all users, regardless of DNS caches, etc. Changes to Bot Protection

As you probably know, bots from LLM companies (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) aggressively try to crawl websites for content, repeatedly causing performance and access issues. For this reason, we will protect feddit.org in the future with Anubis. This requires the browser to solve a simple “proof-of-work” task before content is presented. For “normal” use of feddit.org, this measure is not noticeable but has proven very effective in defending against bots.

Furthermore, we are also lifting the extensive IP blocks for certain “problematic” network ranges - feddit.org will thus be fully accessible again worldwide. The issues where images from feddit.org might not load on other instances should also be resolved.

Next Steps

Subsequently, we will shut down the old instance and replace it with an information page about the change, in case any traffic still lands there.

After that, we will update feddit.org to the latest Lemmy version in a subsequent maintenance window. There will be a separate announcement for that.

Best regards, your

feddit.org Admin Team

I wouldn't mind but I don't post a lot images. You don't need to prove anything to me anyway, I do believe you, I was just pointing out that just "feddit" isn't enough to go on :)

Do you see this deer?

Sorry bad joke it's an owl, and yes Feddit.org has a geoblock for Asia as far as I know.

[–] cinoreus@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not only is it ruining the experience, the geoblock is easily bypassable via a free vpn. Idk whatever they are trying to achieve could be achieved if the geoblock is this bad.

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 1 points 8 hours ago

My guess is the point is anti bot. Not necessarily Lemmy bots but just normal crawlers hammering the server.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Where are you from?

I'm from India and I don't see any images posted on feddit.org.

They're geo-blocking for some reason.

[–] cinoreus@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Yup I am. Why are they geoblocking India?

[–] bleistift2@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 day ago

@surprised_pikachu@feddit.org Any chance this as fixable by the admins? Maybe a more targeted geoblock?

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] cinoreus@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

So I looked it up. Feddit seems to have blocked most parts of aisa because of Alibaba scrapping data. Someone from Saudi Arabia too reported being geoblocked.

[–] Peter_Arbeitslos@feddit.org 7 points 1 day ago

I don't have any problems, must be on your end.

[–] napoleonsdumbcousin@feddit.org 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Are you using the Summit App by any chance? If yes, the workaround is: Settings > Misc > Client user-agent. Choose "Use test user agent".

[–] cinoreus@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I am using boost

[–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] cinoreus@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

For some reason, I cannot load any images that are posted by people who made their account on feddit

[–] asudox@lemmy.asudox.dev 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Depends on which feddit you are talking about.

If you mean feddit.de, that has been long gone.

[–] cinoreus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I am talking about feddit.org

[–] asudox@lemmy.asudox.dev 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Check your network logs when loading images from feddit.org. It might be that feddit.org is blocking your requests for some reason as LW does not seem to be using the image proxy feature of Lemmy.

[–] cinoreus@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Thanks, but unfortunately I am using lemmy on mobile. I cannot access network logs here

[–] asudox@lemmy.asudox.dev 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Then try accessing lemmy with a browser on desktop.

[–] cinoreus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Not working. Feddit.org is inaccessible, only when I am using vpn I can access it. It does look like they have geoblocked certain parts of Asia.
