Asking if other lemmy.ml users are facing similar issues? it seems domains registered on freenom (.ml/.tk) are not being resolved with Google DNS. It works fine on other DNS (Cloudflare/Quad9/etc)

    You are not the only one, see here.

    Google has a troubleshooting website, see here, however in this case the nameserver owners needs to fix that. I would contact Google via Forum, ask them and then forward via CC it to the owner or link it to him. There is less you can do, a workaround is to use an alternative DNS.

    Edit

    If your ISP uses ENOM, then this would explain it.

      For posterity… the dnschecker site you linked to currently shows lemmy.ml resolving fine on all servers they checked, except for two: Google, and “Global-Gateway Internet” in NZ

      but, fwiw, unlike dnschecker, I actually can currently resolve it through 8.8.8.8.

      I don’t personally use Google DNS, was using a google cloud instance and couldn’t resolve some .ml domains. Then I tried lemmy and it didn’t work as well.

      I assume it’s a problem with the domain registrar (freenom). they aren’t the best at handling domains properly.

      But since a lot of people use Google DNS, it might mean lemmy.ml will not work for them at the moment.
