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 😔

My fuckers blocked catbox.moe, most western news sites and slowed down youtube traffic, but lemmy still flies under radar thankfully. I wish you still have your ways to choose what content you want to consume.

Tor with Snow flakes is probably what you want.

You could even use Tails to avoid leaving a trace.

That sounds worse, what country are you living in? Sorry to hear it. And thanks for the wishes :)

[-] andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works 10 points 5 hours ago

The Motherland, of course. I was born into her teenage phase of 90\00s and now I see her rapidly becoming one young and salty widow (:

Oh dear, hearing anything about russia almost makes me proud to a saudi :).

Through our suffering, we are brothers 😂

We see you.

Hell yeah. We a cockroaches in their kitchen, never surrender and always persist whatever they like us or not 😉

How's life for you besides internet censorship, if you don't mind me asking. I'm just curious. Good luck out there!

[-] andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 hours ago

Thank you.

For me, it's edging on absurdity and feeling like I'm the one who feel like we are going insane, but luckily for me I found my close knit circle of friends who share that feeling and I myself adapted to see everything through some lense of satire. Even though I live in it.

What still hurts tho is how my relatives and people around are so uninformed and hostile to everything ukrainian or just european, even if they talk about relatives there, and then they are just like 'why they don't like us' lol. Yeah, like, no reason. And then they order IKEA-like furniture for their flats because it's of european quality!

My sanity is saved by my partner, my friends and my still intact trust in people, even if they are dumb af.

Stay safe out there

Any interest in Briar? I never had a use for it in the US but it is very powerful in the sense that it is designed to be highly resistant to state attacks. It works with or without access to the public internet.

I appreciate you sharing and getting to read about your experience. I really wish you, your friends, and loved ones luck. Do your best to get through it and hopefully someday things will change for the better. My fingers and crossed for you.

[-] fxomt@lemm.ee 3 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Same here. Only instead of partner and family, it's the internet. They're mad, too. It really makes you feel like you are the only one sane in the whole world, and people on the internet don't even feel real, like they come from a fantasy. And i get the racism, too :/ But for us it's towards Jews. Apparently the YAHOOD changed some musical cord to mind control the whole world, according to my old substitute teacher, in a completely unrelated rant.

I constantly feel like i'm at the edge of my sanity, but what could be done? Patience, i guess.

Stay safe, and i hope you can get out happily.

My parents just remembered than some decades ago some ukrainianes wronged them, so there is a long vile pattern of wrongdoings against russian (and we aren't really russian lel).

Stay safe as well. And remember: We weirdos aren't alone as we have each other.

Thank you, that makes me hopeful. ❤️
