@freenode_cdesai:matrix.orgcdesai proletarius101: re: dns this has been brought up before, but that then makes it easy to block fdroid - just block that one domain. 11:55:21
@freenode_cdesai:matrix.orgcdesai Also dns-based solution won't work well with https unless you get one certificate and distribute it to all mirrors which in itself isn't ideal. 11:55:22

yes, the library has some issues – when the site is slow…
Afaik serving static resources is supposed to be very lightweight 🤔, if we serve it in a static way
11:55:34
@freenode_cdesai:matrix.orgcdesaithe server is running apache - the config is quite massive, and I think it does end up running out of resources due to that11:56:07

Or we do as what flatpak do, do a 302 redirection

@freenode_cdesai:matrix.orgcdesai proletarius101: that still makes it easy to block f-droid though 11:57:15
@proletarius101:matrix.orgproletarius101The we can still access mirrors via their real location11:57:23

Why? I don't see more attack surface?
11:58:00
@freenode_cdesai:matrix.orgcdesai It might be easier to either make the library work with mirrors or switch to something else, as that's all only client side changes (and won't need setting up new servers) 11:58:06
@freenode_cdesai:matrix.orgcdesai proletarius101: if all mirrors are accessed through one URL, if that URL is blocked then you can't access f-droid - that's what I meant 11:58:39

Hmm firstly 302 redirection based on ip doesn't require new servers?

I mean you still have those domains

@freenode_cdesai:matrix.orgcdesai proletarius101: if you can join the keanu.im jitsi link above we could discuss it 11:59:47
@proletarius101:matrix.orgproletarius101Oh I know, you mean then it still access resources from the single domain12:00:09
