Maybe one of you hogs knows what’s up.

I got a new IP address for my VPS and updated the DNS A record accordingly. That was two days ago and I still get an “unable to connect” error when trying to access TankieTube through protonVPN.

However, if I drop the VPN everything works. This is the case with both Firefox and Chrome.

Does this have to do with DNS propagation?

    It’s probably some automated block on the VPN provider’s part, but there is the ever so small chance that they have a misconfigured DNS server that ignored the TTL on the A record and is still trying to ping the old IP.
