What exactly is not working?

FaridZelli commented 1 month ago

What exactly is not working?

  1. The app fails to connect to any server before the progress bar even starts.
  2. It's no longer possible to login using a code.

These issues seem to happen at random, however whitelisting metric.surfshark.com solves the problem. I assume they've introduced some sort of scheduled analytics in the 3.9.0 update, as it started happening precisely 480 hours after the update was rolled out (Stable channel, August 27th ).

Idk if i forgot my linux bases but what IP does this domain resolve to? I can't seem to find any A/AAAA/cname/other even when specifying a public resolver

hagezi commented 1 month ago

The domain returns NOERROR but has no A/AAAA record.

I'll unblock it ...

Thank you for your support. The domain(s) has/have been added to the allowlist and will be removed with the next release.
