Trying to open any codeberg.org page from my main Helium browser results in a 403 just saying "Bye". Opening in Chrome or Firefox works fine. Very confusing.


I've been seeing this for a few weeks using the Chromium-based Vivaldi. I assumed it had something to do with my IP address resolving to my US ISP. I cannot access the issue tracker. What exactly is intentional -- to exclude users of browsers other than Chrome and Firefox?

FWIW, I can access my repo(s) with CLI git commands.


Okay, I used MS Edge to find that "Chrome/150 and Chrome/152 work fine, it's specifically 151 that seems to be blocked." Time for a Vivaldi update...

Update: I raised this issue on their platform issue tracker, and was informed that it is, in fact, intentional. Sigh...
