Hello đź‘‹. I can't use Photon while RethinkDNS is active. I can log in to the website, but as soon as I do, the errors shown in the photo appear, and I can't use it.

Check network logs first. What do you see?

One or more of the URLs on that page/app is being blocked. You need to figure out which; that should be in the log on the dns tunnel service.

This kind of error happens somewhat frequently, so you’ll get comfortable with it quickly!

This looks like a problem when it tries contacting the Lemmy instance. Is there any rule in Rethink DNS that is somehow preventing API calls to lemmy.dbzer0.com?

It seems like nothing is being blocked.

I didn't see any blocked pages in the log.

No, there isn't.

In the main menu > accounts, try adding a guest account for some other instance like lemmy.zip. does that server work?
