(Slightly off topic) -- I can't connect to this site from my mobile data or home connection. FF, Curl + mobile FF claim to not be able to resolve the host The DNS records seem odd: $ dig www.amolas.dev [ ... ] ;; ANSWER SECTION: www.amolas.dev. 66 IN CNAME https://alexmolas.github.io. https://alexmolas.github.io. 66 IN A 185.199.111.153 https://alexmolas.github.io. 66 IN A 185.199.109.153 https://alexmolas.github.io. 66 IN A 185.199.108.153 https://alexmolas.github.io. 66 IN A 185.199.110.153 I don't think you can put a scheme in a cname ...

hi! some people told me that they can access the site, but I've never knew why, and I'm not an expert on websites. Thanks for spotting it! How can I solve the problem? What does it mean to put a scheme in a cname?

    And the actual problem was probably that many browsers don't show the 'https:// https://' in the URL bar, but do include it when copy-pasting. So a user who copy pasted from the URL bar into the DNS records (probably following some guide) ended up with the wrong thing in there.

  While we're on the topic of the site... Why do you have links styled to look exactly like the other plain text? At the bottom of the article, it says "This post has been heavily inspired by this question in SO ↩" and I could not for the life of me find the link to said question until I discovered that "question" was a hidden link.

    That's weird, because on my computer it looks well. Some people already complained about that, but I don't know why it can happen. Do you have any suggestion?

This reminds me of an old article quote from a game developer on Steam bug reports from Linux vs Windows users: >The report quality [from Linux users] is stellar. I mean we have all seen bug reports like: “it crashes for me after a few hours”. Do you know what a developer can do with such a report? Feel sorry at best. You can’t really fix any bug unless you can replicate it, see it with your own eyes, peek inside and finally see that it’s fixed. And with bug reports from Linux players is just something else. You get all the software/os versions, all the logs, you get core dumps and you get replication steps. Sometimes I got with the player over discord and we quickly iterated a few versions with progressive fixes to isolate the problem. You just don’t get that kind of engagement from anyone else.
