Also works using an account from another instance, thought it might have been cross-linking incompatibility, but nope.

Nah they identify the protocol handshake and block it altogether, so you need to find a VPN with a proprietary protocol that keeps updating.

It's probably a modified openvpn with some package obfuscation, but works surprisingly well.

Astrill, only VPN with a good track record in China where I happen to live.

Most others crap out after a few weeks or months, and never bother to fix their protocols.

Yep it's still a beta, that will be coming soon.

Lemmy Ultra = Sync Ultra

Lemmy Adfree = Sync Pro

The old app was simply too cheap, that's that. One-off purchases for $2 are hardly sustainable for individual developers.

Adfree is 20 bucks, how is that insane?

[–] godless@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago (4 children)

That's for ultra. Simple adfree is 20 for a lifetime.

The actual blockers were fixed in the first couple days, if not hours. We are now at beta 23 within just 10 days since the internal testing began, lj has been working like a madman.
