If you put that question into any search engine, you’ll learn several ways how to check.

I don’t know why you’re getting down voted, you’re correct. Seems easier than making a post.

Well, I’ll be the first to say it’s not generally a pleasant or helpful sounding response. But it isn’t a useful post either and it seems the downvotes are supporting that.

Some site maybe being momentarily down just isn’t something you spam a public group of who knows how many people about. Also a useless post will stay and pollute the group history indefinitely and the volume of good content isn’t that big here yet either.

One I use:

If you search, you’ll learn several privacy-abusing ways to do that via enshitified exclusive walled gardens which share the site you’re asking about with US tech giants and treat users of VPNs, Tor, and CGNAT with hostility.

  • ❌https://downdetector.com/ ← avoid (Cloudflare)
  • ❌https://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ ← avoid (Cloudflare); I think was one of the 1st of this kind but then it got greedy and became exclusive
  • 🤷https://www.isitdownrightnow.com/ ← meh (inclusive of everyone for the moment, but uses CF DNS so could spontaneously proxy through CF; broken on lynx because 1st party js req’d)
  • ✓ ← decent, lesser of evils (CF-free & always inclusive of everyone, but does not work on lynx and requires JS; it pushes CF JS but still works if you only run 1st party js)

I only listed 2 bad ones (the 1st two) but when you search the first dozen results are shit. What could be more shitty than being directed to CAPTCHAs and other exclusive bullshit in the course of trying to troubleshoot a problem?

Also, the community we’re in here is “nostupidquestions”.

There’s also an onion one but I lost track of it.

Downdetector, isitdownrightnow are two different websites to check other sites availability.
