Bug with JS or block via NodeBB?

[brazzerstop]

Hello!

Today I noticed a strange error, javascript partially does not work on the forum and many functions stopped working (displaying the date, scrolling the latest topics, notification and chat buttons).

It only worked when I turned on the VPN, is it some kind of blocking here (policy) or just a bug?

Is it happening now?

[brazzerstop]

@julian Yes, right now.
Without VPN javascript on this forum works incorrectly for me

Day before yesterday all was worked fine... mayse this is some protection of bots (disable js)... but I am not bot

Sounds very much like Geo blocking. Not sure if libraries are called via CDN but that could well be the reason. Could you provide a location for where you currently are?

[julian]

Yeah, unfortunately I don't think there's anything we explicitly did to cause this. If you are on desktop, I'd recommend opening up the dev tools to see what errors you see.

@julian Today I can't open try.nodebb.org and community.nodebb.org without vpn

Can you try with a different internet connection? e.g. if on wifi, try 3G/LTE, etc.

@julian I don't understand what is problem, but now all work without vpn...
