Solved Yandex.com not working
-
yandex.com works again on desktop.
//edit: after some minutes it fails again on browsers. -
@Pathduck said in Yandex.com not working:
Interestingly, it works in Firefox. And also Brave for some reason...
Yes, it works fine on Firefox.
-
@DoctorG said in Yandex.com not working:
Fun fact:
Yandex images, too.
Also, if you add a search item in the link, it'll open. -
@MWJ97 Please mark your topic as Solved now that you have an answer to your question.

I do not know if 6.9 Snapshot works.
But i am not willing to test with 6.9 Snapshot's outdated Chromium 126.0.6478.166 core on such untrusted domain. -
MMWJ97 has marked this topic as solved on

@Pathduck I contacted Yandex support, and they told me that (We cannot influence a third-party service. Please contact Vivaldi browser support with this issue.)
-
@MWJ97 Well, their support are idiots then.
It seems to work fine here.
-
@Pathduck Yes, I think so
It's still not working for me, even on a guest profile. -
Typing
yandex.com
fails to load, typingwww.yandex.com
wants to know if i am a robot, after solving captcha i was allowed to enter this russian controlled site. WTF!!! These russian webmasters and server admins do not know what standards are. CRAP! -

Perhaps Yandex had geo-blocking with some special browsers.

But, this issue has started recently. It was working fine.
Is there any way to deal with it? -
@MWJ97 Guessing... do you have Third Party Cookies disabled?
Attached log image from Ublock. I have a Ublock Adblocker that stops me from loading the site, notably the Captcha, which is third party site and I suspect wants to set cookies

I have uBlock Origin, too. I disabled it, but still not loading.
-
I check with Vivaldi 6.8 + 6.9 and other Chromium 127 + 129, and typing
yandex.com
sometimes a captcha come up. But mostly it is rejected.
I did not lock cookies and used fresh profiles.
Could be that the Yandex server farm load balancer is broken and sends wrong data for SSL.
Perhaps the Russian Internet itself is broken in routing from the EU or something is blocked by Yandex servers themselves. -
@MWJ97 Just had to disable one Privacy Tracker in uBlock and enable third party cookies in Vivaldi. I get the Captcha then at "yandex.com". Sometimes you have to force it to reload at this point because the Captcha is incomplete. Had to answer the working Captcha twice and then I was in. FWIW I was using a Private Window for this.
You could try enabling the Log feature in uBlock, reload and see if there are any obvious problems there
-
Today yandex,.com does not work for me anymore on Vivaldi and other Chromium-related browsers.
Strange!
Fails: Windows 11.
Works: Android 10 Vivaldi 6.8 Stable. -
@DoctorG I got in eventually. Took numerous reloads to get the Captcha to work, if you even get that far... Chromiums Inspector was showing the Captcha url connection as err/closed when it wouldn't load
-
I stop testing.
I suspect aggressive IP-/geoblocking on Yandex side or RU internet, or blocked routing in the EU or backbone to RU because of lawful restrictions. -

Yes, it now takes a lot of reloads to open after I change the Vivaldi cookies settings to allow all. Before that, I wasn't working at all.
