Troubles with Google Chrome

Thankfully lichess.info domain has two IP addresses. Its hosting provider probably uses DNS balancing. When on client side domain's name randomly gets resolved to the second addr. (116.201) then it's accessible, otherwise not.

So, besides VPN, TOR, proxy etc, one could just statically bind lichess.info to the second (yet unblocked for today) IP in their 'hosts' file. Until RosComNadzor hasn't blocked that on too. So this might be not everyone's cup of tea... But then again 'Crimea is our', of course.
We're not using lichess.info anymore, but lichess1.org, to serve static assets.
The DNS is the same: it's the DNS of cloudflare, an industry leading CDN. To block it is a bad, bad mistake.
Thib thx!
Tisme ofcouse Crimea is our!!! but whose side are you on?
When you think about hijacking a technical discussion with an irrelevant political statement, think again. Now I have to close the topic.
