I am no longer able to log in or view any content with wefwef. I deleted the app and tried to navigate to the website with my phone.

I am technically able to access the website, but any attempts to login in say "connection error". Any attempts to view posts say "problem fetching posts". I have tried multiple instances and none of them work.

Is anyone else having this issue? I am an android user. Thanks.

For me, it was because I had NextDNS enabled but it worked fine with it on up until now. Wonder what happened. Replying from iOS.

What is NextDNS? I'm curious to know what made it stop working as well, although I don't have any special settings I've fiddled with on my phone to my knowledge.

DNS is what translates www.website.com into an IP address that allow clients to load content from those websites. Most people use the DNS that come with their ISP. NextDNS is an alternate “translator” with built in Firewall/Adblock options (like a Pi-Hole). I figured after the Clear Safari Data trick didn’t work for me, it was because of NextDNS blocking something that required wepwep to function. I think it was related to that CORS and wepwep proxy thing that was fixed a while ago, but I switched it back on after reinstalling wepwep and it’s all good!
