This site is becoming useless to me because everything is hosted on catbox which doesn't like my browser

Then figure out why. Catbox resists censorship and, despite having the occasional hiccups, has stood the test of time.

Is it a browser problem? Then use another browser.

Is it an ISP problem? Then use a VPN.

Is it a VPN problem? Then use another VPN.

There are forces that seek to censor catbox. Caving in to them would let them win.

catbox is actively blocking vpn connections.

Or is your VPN blocking catbox? Have you tried another VPN? Or maybe the VPN is using a limited set of addresses, and catbox is blocking abuse on these addresses and catching all users. Same resolution, try another VPN.

Is catbox blocking all VPNs? That would seem strange, as they recommend using VPNs to avoid country and ISP-level censorship: https://catbox.moe/faq.php

catbox updated their shit, it doesn't work.

How do you know this?

I'm not launching a forensic audit to figure it out.

That's what the censors rely on.

Are you using a VPN? Because I'm not the only one experiencing this, and I don't use some shitty free vpn service.

No, I don't use or pay for a VPN. All it does is link my financial info to yet another ISP, who I have to trust isn't any shittier than my standard ISP. But just because you pay for a VPN doesn't mean they don't censor for "safety" reasons.

AS far as any of us can tell, catbox is refusing the connection.

Well you don't know, you're just assuming. But even if they are blocking the VPN, it doesn't mean they are blocking ALL VPNs, and they may have good reasons to block particular VPNs.

Make a new image host for us, if you see a problem be the solution

[ - ] x0x7 1 point 8 monthsSep 18, 2023 10:26:29 ago (+1/-0)*

https://img.gvid.tv

But the images aren't embedding right on voat. They used to. Pomf also has that problem here.

Both pomf and img.gvid.tv seem to work ok on matrix.gvid.tv, so IDK.

It's the 'take-me-to-space' domain which causes me problems. I think Comcast blocks it. When I go to the same links on my phone (when not connected to my WiFi) I don't have any problems.

Oddly, I've noticed other catbox domains blocked when using other WiFi networks.

Catbox only works 50% of the time for me.

[ - ] PencilLeadSyringe 1 point 8 monthsSep 18, 2023 13:49:11 ago (+1/-0)

It feels like ~30% of the time for me. Not sure if it's a Brave issue or catbox is just inconsistent. I also live in the boonies so that's likely a factor too. Some days catbox is flawless, but some days it simply refuses to load anything at all.

Hardly ever for files around or over 10 megs.

Use Brave Browser... https://brave.com/

Problem solved.

[ - ] Scyber 0 points 7 monthsSep 18, 2023 21:38:36 ago (+0/-0)

Brave is turning to shit and cucking to some ads. Also their crypto payouts have been shit the past 2 years.

You don’t contribute very much.

You can use Firefox with a proxy, have you tried that? What about Torr? Or Torr via brave?

Problem is on your end, so you have to solve it on your end.

Since Catbox is the best host site, you better change your browser.

imgflip is more reliable and easier to use (but you cant up videos so thats a bust)

[ - ] Conspirologist 0 points 8 monthsSep 18, 2023 10:19:13 ago (+2/-2)

imgflip is a meme maker. Are you sure to understand the difference?

[ - ] purityspiral 3 points 8 monthsSep 18, 2023 10:20:17 ago (+3/-0)

I do, but I don't have to use it the way they want me to use it.
I pop my images there because its always online and I can pull out the direct link which embeds nicely here.
and if I want to add some snarky text, the option is there.
