Ask HN: Distrowatch.com returns HTTP/403? Did they shutdown?
Not sure if anybody noticed that distrowatch.com returns 403 forbidden. I'm connecting from ASN 6830, with a mobile browser (Samsung Android tablet), normal end user ISP network over IPv6. Did they misconfigured, or shut down all operations? Working fine for me, so no they have not shut down. Thanks. It seems they started to filter UserAgents, because it indeed renders with Firefox Android, but not with Samsung browser, filtered UA is: Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 10; K) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) SamsungBrowser/27.0 Chrome/125.0.0.0 Safari/537.36
