Maybe one of you hogs knows what’s up.

I got a new IP address for my VPS and updated the DNS A record accordingly. That was two days ago and I still get an “unable to connect” error when trying to access TankieTube through protonVPN.

However, if I drop the VPN everything works. This is the case with both Firefox and Chrome.

Does this have to do with DNS propagation?

I forget how to use it properly off the top of my head, but nslookup should be able to tell you what the dns lookup looks like and where the mismatch is coming from.
