It’s been like this since the photo uploader was fixed, at least a month now . I just miss the community a lot

Same here. Try a proxy server, floridaorchid! I use an online free proxy server. You can easily find them, but hit me up in the PMs and I'll link you mine. Everything I mention here lately seems to stop working. <sigh>

I'm having this issue again now. I can only access it either on mobile or with a VPN.

Luckily I remembered that this time, though!

Husband fixed it! He had them reset the DNS and turn on the IPV 6.

I don't know what that all means, but in case anyone else needs it.

Suddenly today, after checking every single day before, I can get back on. IDK what changed or happened. This is a total mystery to me.

And the access is quite fast too. So please, mods, you can declare this "solved", well at least for me.

Thanks! I no longer have to jump through the proxy server hoop.

I have lost it again. Do you still have access? It was nice while it lasted.

Nope, gone again, so it is *not* on our end, it's not. It was fine a couple days ago, and yesterday so it's dependent on something on this server, I'm sure.

And I can reach the LHC again, normally.

And it's unreachable regularly, again, so back to the proxy it is; what the heck gives?

Still only through the proxy. I just am eager to know why I could access it for a brief "one day" period. Is it due to some updates on the server? Last time it was the server's end too, and Stephanie had a beast fixing it, but it got fixed. I wonder what gives this time?
