nope, some mobile carriers blocked either cobalt or cloudflare ip ranges in kazakhstan
can’t do anything about it unfortunately, you’ll have to use a vpn to go around bullshit restrictions :(

these servers aren’t in production, cobalt should be working fine

hey! you weren't blocked, one of processing servers was having connectivity issues. i removed it from the load balancer until we figure out what's wrong, so everything should be back to normal now. can you try again and see if it works as usual?

thank you so much! we didn't know this link style (share/reel/:id) existed at all, so we missed it
just pushed an update that adds support for these links, can you try again to see if it works for you without any manual link changes?

yes, because you can’t download the file automatically without user interaction on the page first

the pwa is really pretty on ios though

yes, it does have a pwa, but you can only share to it on android, cuz safari doesn’t support this feature yet

firefox and safari do this because they don’t have a permission to read the clipboard
in chrome it’s just one click after you give permission
nothing we can do on our side to improve it in firefox and safari

we'll also do our best to post everything about cobalt here from now on ❤️🦋

also majorly improved pasting performance, you should be able to paste links with the "paste" button from more places, such as bluesky!
if you're curious, this was happening because we previously relied on .readText() clipboard api, which wasn't able to get the text/uri-list type
