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?

Ah okay so your VPS isn’t the VPN gateway, you’re using protonVPN’s. If you do a dig or nslookup against their DNS servers you cam confirm if their records are updated. If they are then I would guess like others in the thread suggested it’s something on Proton’s side
