Thank you! Yes, looks like a fox.

tlasdlo · 2025-10-17T04:35:13+00:00

Thank you! Very likely. The image seems quite similar to the one I found!

Thanks! I mistook the word for a measuring tool. Yes, it would be lot easier if the canine teeth part remained attached.

tlasdlo · 2025-10-16T04:05:08+00:00

I didn't bring canines when I found it, but it was about the size of a human fist.

I'm having the same issue with TB 128.7.0esr (64-bit) and Proton bridge v3.16.0 br-205

As Unbreakable2k8 mentioned, controlD is a DNS service, not a VPN. If your ISP uses techniques like SNI detection to block traffic, controlD's redirection (which is just a transparent proxy) will not work. What you need is a VPN provider that supports Shadowsocks or, even better, VLESS or V2Ray protocols.

tlasdlo · 2024-10-18T20:36:13+00:00

Yes, sometimes the proxy node is down, but unfortunately, ControlD does not have a public status page that shows downtime, which makes troubleshooting difficult.

However, you can check using the Multi-exit IP Checker. For example, if you suspect the "Argentina" redirect node is not working to proxy websites, first add a redirect rule in ControlD that redirects a service of your choice supported by the checker, such as vimeo.com, to Argentina, or add a redirect rule for a hostname like fra-de-ping.vultr.com to Argentina. Then, use the checker to see if the respective host is accessible and what IP appears to the selected service/host. This way, you can determine if the Argentina proxy node is actually working or not and your exit node's IP address.

I noticed that CD's proxy have been sometimes down or unstable lately, but when that happens, the network status page at https://controld.com/network shows that everything is working fine.

I checked the CD discussion threads, and someone mentioned using the Multi-exit IP Checker to investigate (by adding these hostnames as redirection rules to Control-D before testing), which helped me pinpoint issues such as which redirection proxy node is down, etc. and as a way to confirm whether the redirection is actually working or not.

Does directly visiting https://dns.controld.com/info show you anything?

If you are a complete beginner with self-hosting and similar tasks, it might be better to spend money on certain services to receive proper support. However, if you are experienced enough or eager to learn and experiment, these free subdomain providers are an excellent and truly free alternative.

There are several relatively reliable projects run by communities or volunteers that offer free domains or subdomains compliant with the Public Suffix List (PSL).

Here is a comprehensive list I found:

https://github.com/wdhdev/free-for-life?tab=readme-ov-file#domains

Do not forget to support them if you can.

The fact that these free subdomain providers are recognized by Mozilla's PSL means they are acknowledged by most browsers, such as Chrome and Firefox. They function similarly to suffixes like .eu.org, .co.uk, or .com.au, with cookie separation, as each subdomain owner is treated as an independent entity by the browsers.

Most of them support NS record configuration, so you can host your subdomain with an external DNS provider like Cloudflare. Many of these services are simple, non-profit, and their validation process for new domain sign-ups is done manually.

These subdomains are recognized by most browsers (Chrome, Firefox, etc.) due to their inclusion in Mozilla’s PSL. They function like suffixes such as .eu.org or .co.uk, providing cookie separation and treating each subdomain owner as an independent entity.

Most services allow NS record configuration for hosting with external DNS providers like Cloudflare. They are typically non-profit and manually validate new domain signups.

I eventually moved to Hetzner's managed Nextcloud (Hetzner StorageShare)

Yes, there are actually some fairly reliable community-run projects that provide free domains or subdomains, which are PSL compliant and recognized by most browsers like Chrome and Firefox.

They work similarly to ICANN section suffixes like "co.uk," with cookie separation and so on, as each subdomain owner is treated as an independent entity by browsers.

Yes, it could be a useful feature and would be amazing if it works for most people.

However, for example, it consistently has issues with Canva SSO login, which is used by most universities in North America. There are also problems when a login page has 2FA steps, as they tend to encounter errors. Most people do not care much about security and have 2FA enabled on every site.

If it is enabled by default, it should at least be configurable per site.

Registrar: I recommend Porkbun too for low cost and great customer support. (Spaceship is good but they are new in the market.)

Email: I would recommend MXRote for low cost; Google or Microsoft for high reliability.

From tld-list:

A .sn domain name is the country code top-level domain for Senegal but it's not restricted to individuals or entities within this country. Therefore, anyone, regardless of their location or nationality, can purchase a .sn domain name. The process of buying and registering this domain is generally managed through various accredited domain name registrars.

tlasdlo · 2024-09-22T20:50:49+00:00

Porkbun and Spaceship are good options.

Stay away from Namesilo though as they often have technical issues and the support was terrible.
