Almost everyone in Russia is reporting that no one cannot access the website without VPN.
Error type ether connection timeout or ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED. Can the devs of itch.io confirm that the website is blocked for Russians?
Note: We’ve deployed a second IP address to the server as we attempt to debug the regional access issues. We’ve updated our DNS records to point to this IP. Please report back if you are still having issues accessing site.
The new IP is 45.79.115.66
You can use your system’s ping
command to check if your computer is using the new IP address: ping itch.io
We are not blocking any countries from access to our servers. Yesterday we had an outage due to a networking issue that resulted in our host transferring our primary server to a new IP. The updated DNS settings may take time to propagate.
First you’ll want to verify that your requests are going to the IP (We updated the IP again, see above) to access itch.io.45.33.107.166
Next, if you have access to curl you could run something like Thanks we have enough examplescurl -v https://itch.io
to see where the failure might be happening.
Edit: Thanks for showing the curl output, next if possible, could you share the output of traceroute or similar command like this user has done: https://itch.io/post/10006445. Note that this command may expose your IP address, so feel free to redact it from the output before pasting it into the site.
We’ve collected enough information, thanks for helping out.
Seems It's blocks on right IP address

It was not the site itself that was blocked, but a web game with terrible content, and the site itself fell under distribution
we go to the website "Registry Monitoring" from Roskomsvoboda, we drive it into the search "itch.io ". It becomes clear that the site was blocked because of some kind of game "Manya Lovit Vanyu".

As you can see in this independent registry, that game page was blocked back in 2022. May that be that before itch.io update a few days ago they've been able to look though https and block that particular page only and now that it's no longer possible it falls back to blocking the entire website?
The website doesn't open despite what looks like a mostly succesfull tracert. I use 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 for dns on this pc.

Found the solution how to connect to itch without VPN
Add to hosts file this:
173.255.209.84 itch.io
I don't know how safe it is and etc., but it worked to me
(solution was found somewhere in dephts of the internet)
At this time (31/05/24, ~18:00-18:30 MSK) i have only 2 ways: VPN or this solution. Nothing else helped
UPD (01/06/24 ~12:00 MSK)
It seems to be working only with main itch web-page. You can't enter the game page with this method
MrMFS found the solution but it's not working fully.
Game pages woks differently (example. Game dismantled. URL starts like this bigprojectalone.itch.io) because of the custom link name, hosts stops working and again we are having "error_connection_refused". If i'm gonna add this to hosts "173.255.209.84 bigprojectalone.itch.io" it suddenly working again.
The problem is... Everyone's pages is named differently... so you have to manually add them into hosts if you wanna have access to the site.
When I opened forbidden game page, I got PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR
From this I can assume, that the blocking works as it should (only for one page)
Hopefully, the problem is on itch.io side, and the website will be fixed soon.
It's just a guess, but can it be that the problem is with ssl-certificate?
As we can see with curl, we can't connect to https, but it connects to http.

* Connection #0 to host itch.io left intact
So can it be, that ssl-certificate has "exclude Russia" option after update and changing dns? As i see they have such option: https://techdocs.akamai.com/cps/docs/select-network-settings (i assume the site uses linode and akamai, judging by the traceroute)
It's only my guess, so excuse me and ignore it, if it's just some drivel.
What ip is it? itch.io is 45.33.107.166. When u try to enter blocked sites u get "
ERR_CONNECTION_RESET" or "DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN". Trying to enter itch.io i get "ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED". Also as u can see it is blocked since 2016. So why problem appears only now? U posted it just for hype?
Also it looks like this now:
No hype, if you just type in the command line ping www.itch.io and you will get the same address, but if you enter through https, the command line will not understand such an address, only through www. No argument, yes, the address is different if you search through https. I personally only get the “ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED” message in the browser.
Yep. It feels like their new IP address is behind some kind of firewall that unfortunately for us happens to be blocking both Russia and China IP's. At first i thought it was ISP/government/censor block but since China took a hit as well (at the same time) i bet that's the case.

my two tracerts, with vpn and without, end with exactly the same set of lines, yet the website is still inaccessible from a Russian IP.
when browsing without a vpn, my browser tells me that the connection isn't secure and there is no SSL certificate. however, a vpn with european ip gets access without issues in the same browser and loads the certificate.
i asked someone else to try, and they said that their normal ip had no access, however using a vpn which connects to an ip within russia they were able to load the website. not sure what's going on there, i asked them to also check what certificate they get on the vpn, still waiting for the response.
upd: just heard back from the other person. they use Kaspersky Antivirus which somehow installs its own ssl certificates, so that's why the website could be opened from Russia.
ps. i do not recommend installing Kaspersky to fix the issue.
Для всех тех у кого возникают повторы - проблемы вероятнее всего на стороне провайдеров, у меня были проблемы, но не конкретно с этим сайтом, а с другими, попробуйте (если у вас есть возможность) заходить через телефон используя мобильный интернет, а не домашний , если это помогает - то это провайдер, если нет - то пользуйтесь ВПН, сайт могут искусственно замедлять для Русских пользователей
