Good time, everyone.

I've been recently running updates on OpenBLD servers, furthermore the OpenBLD server is now faster for you to enjoy 😊

Over the last few weeks, I've changed the code so that the service is now split into a primary and secondary parts.

Major changes

- Added soreUsePort functionality
- Added multipliers for service workers
- Added "Request Rate Limiter" functionality
- Added the ability to load permanent lists and block lists on a separate schedule
- Added the ability to cache negative responses 🚀
- Added the ability to use a time window to resolve DNS requests

Aaaand - Reduced the binary file size of the OpnenBLD daemon by 10% 💪

This release was granularly deployed to the ecosystem, now this weekend it will go to the ecosystem as a full package.

I am always open for receiving feedback and just hearing about you thought.

Be yourself, be focused everyone👋🏻

Chrome захотел двойную безопасность ✅

Версия. Chrome (Version 129.0.6668.42 (Official Build) (x86_64)) взяла и отметила двойной DoH в настройках безопасности, создав параметры зеркально в своем интерфейсе.

Тот случай, когда матрица хочет пользоваться OpenBLD.net многократно 😎

🚀 OpenBLD.net новый DNS сервер в Казахстане 🇰🇿 Алматы

Недавно узнал о 3hcloud.kz. Пошел, попробовал и был приятно удивлен:

- скоростью (коннективити и инстансы - супер)
- понравился firewall
- цены прияно удивили

После нескольких недель тестирования, твердо могу заявить - совместимость с OpenBLD.net присутствует.

Настрой Chrome как описано здесь:

- https://openbld.net/ru/docs/get-started/setup-browsers/chrome/

А потом открой сайт который достал рекламой и удивись сам(а).

P.S. Есть кейс или что-то не работает - welcome в любое время (контакты)

P.P.S. Yandex Cloud к сожалению оказался не совместим с OpenBLD.net требованиями по качеству, все сервера базирующиеся на базе данного облака ближайшем будущем будут упразднены ⚰️

🚀 OpenBLD.net - Switched to in-touch release model

A few weeks ago I announced Canary release, now I decided switch to "in-touch" deployment stages.

To start with, I'm using my "Flex App Additions Methodology" in my projects. Often some bugs have to be fixed quickly, we all want these bugs to be fixed quickly..)

My "in-touch" release model includes:

1. Trunk-based development model
2. Rolling release
3. Canary > Production deployment

This model can includes unnotified maintenance window ~3 minutes or 3 iteration maximum in a day, this does not mean that the service will be unavailable at this time, you just need to keep in mind that if suddenly something goes wrong for you, you immediately let me know about it, that's all)

Be patient while running, only forward! 🟢

OpenBLD.net is always with you ✌️

Your TV might be secretly taking screenshots every 10-500 milliseconds!

OpenBLD.net specifically blocks tracking traffic from LG and Samsung TVs, protecting your privacy.

Additional steps:

Disable all anonymous data collection settings on your devices.
Connect to OpenBLD.net and protect your personal data from unauthorized access.

Don't let them watch you!✌️

Now we are seeing another well-thought-out type of attack ⚠️ through the OSSEC SIEM agent Wazuh, promotion through search engines, advertising and competent SEO.

OpenBLD.net tries to promptly respond to such events, but if you encounter a fake domain with fake software opening for you, do not hesitate and let us know about it, please.

Take care of yourself 🤜🤛

💯 OpenBLD.net presents: New Guaranteed Response System 😡

Have you ever faced issues with receiving responses from servers? Timeouts, errors, or empty replies can significantly disrupt some workflows. But I tried, and I think I found a solution!

🟩 The new OpenBLD.net feature includes a guaranteed response system that activates in cases where the standard resolution process fails. If you receive a Servfail status or other errors, we employ additional logic, and the service takes a:

🔹 Internal pool of servers.
🔹 External pool of servers.

By mixing both, we ensure unique servers without upstreams that returned a fail status or are busy.

This means that even if the initial response was unsuccessful, we continue the search for the correct answer, ensuring reliability and accuracy for you.

Don’t let response issues slow down your life or business!

Be yourself, be focused! ✌️

Note: Today OpenBLD.net - ADA, RIC, KID ecosystems will be updated, be calm, everything should work as usual 🤞
If you will have any problem, let me know please.

👁 OpenBLD.net - Infrastructure Update for abuse.ch

Hello everyone! I’m excited to announce that today we’ve upgraded the infrastructure to enhance our integration with the incredible resource URLhaus.abuse.ch

What is abuse.ch - FIGHTING MALWARE AND BOTNETS community driven threat intelligence on cyber threats. It is the home of a couple of projects that are helping internet service providers and network operators protecting their infrastructure from malware. IT-Security researchers, vendors and law enforcement agencies rely on data from abuse.ch, trying to make the internet a safer place.

With these updates, OpenBLD.net servers will be even faster and more efficient at detecting malicious domains, confidently competing with Quad9 and Cloudflare in terms of blocking harmful domains.

I’m thrilled to be a part of this project, and even more excited that we’re all part of this mission together!

Wishing everyone peace and kindness! Stay true to yourself and stay focused! ✌️
