Encrypted messaging app Signal has stopped working in China and is now only accessible by users of a virtual private network (VPN).

      If China were to block it would you still be able to access it through your own instance?

        I assume that they block by domain, so if you start your own instance with a different domain, it should work fine.

          Unless they start automatically scanning for Lemmy instances and adding to the block list.
