It looks like Russian РосКомНадзор (Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology, and Mass Media) has blocked the Alternative to, the website where you could search for alternatives to the programs and apps you need.

They were probably trying to block another messenger or VPN, but accidentally broke a harmless service: the pages haven't opened for several weeks, but the page titles still load.

You don't need any alternative when you live in Russia!

For some reason, choosing the optimal operating system for someone else's antiques is a thrill for me, but the thought of having to reinstall the OS on my own antiques makes me shudder. I don't want to!

Look to my coming at first light on the fifth day. At dawn, look to the East. I shall come across the onion bridge.

NetBlocks monitors local internet blockages and shutdowns around the world, and they have a Telegram channel, where for the past couple of months they've been counting down the days since Iran completely blocked access to the global internet. And someone regularly adds enthusiastic reactions there: at first, everything seems predictable, but ten minutes pass, and bam—for some reason, everyone is happy. Who needs that?
