I was on my phone, so all I saw was a generic Safari error message. I think it was site not found, but I don't recall. I'm able to see it now, but am coming in through a different network provider in case that matters.

Also, not to be an apologist, but I trust you realize that "the way they handle US sanctions by blocking everybody from entire countries" is how US companies are required by law to act. Not all do act that way, of course, but almost any that have enough overseas customers to matter do, because they have enough overseas customers to need to be aware of those laws.

I know that's how sanctions work. What I mean is that the possibility of being locked out of a central facet of my digital life by US legal processes is another strong motivation for self-hosting.
