  • Do you use a VPN? I’ve noticed a lot of cdn’s have become very hostile to VPNs over the last year. Initially I blamed the VPN but I’m pretty convinced it’s the cdn’s at this point*.

    *This is because I started using a private linode server as a tailscale exit node and boy does the internet hate that IP with a passion. Toggling between using that and my home computer as exit nodes is somewhat fascinating. The web is so rude when I browse from my linode box. So… now I use the linode exit node to let the jerks take themselves to the curb. Anyway images not loading randomly is one of the telltale signs of a jerk website. It even happens when using Google One VPN or Cloudflair’s WARP+ nowadays. Switch them off and use my residential IP exit node and presto it all works again.
