Danbooru is banned in some countries so chainging Shima, Saitou, Safebooru and Kagamihara base url back also made these sites useless in banned countries too.

[Qappashiro]

Is it possible to use the same url of other proxy links of danbooru like in old days? main danbooru adress like https://danbooru/ donmai us/ is banned in a third world country like mine so all the images cant load at all in this case. but if the link is like https://shima.donmai.us/data .... then there was no problem at all. its same for "kagamihara" and "saitou" proxies too. would be awesome at least one of them is not using main danbooru.donmai,us link so that site is still accessible for countries who banned danbooru in the first place.

it used to be like https://shima.donmai.us/data/sample/8f/98/… when u were using https://shimadonmai.us/
i mean by banned banned in some countries like mine
but shima or other kagamihara or saitou or other domains are not banned so hope at least one of these uses same url as base link so that i dont have to use vpn all time.

Example: https://shima.donmai.us/posts/4440522 is not vissible as you can see in the screenshot:

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/710192137878241372/823166285680345088/Untitled.png

because the site is using https://danbooru.donmai.us/data/original/30/44/__original_drawn_by_richard_ri39p__304474a3fa45ba2e4d21c6a98ba8763a.png

and not https://shima.donmai.us/data/original/30/44/__original_drawn_by_richard_ri39p__304474a3fa45ba2e4d21c6a98ba8763a.png

anymore. At least please make one of those shima, saito or other domains are accessible for people who are living in third world countries and where danbooru is banned so that we can use the site like in old days without using VPN. Changing DNS to 1.1.1.1 also not working either too so public DNS are out of question.

even if you use the DNS its same:

and you get this error https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/710192137878241372/823207221528887317/unknown.png?width=1618&height=910

In short: problem is two-fold; the dns poisoning is one part, but the other is that the local cloudflare node doesn't want to serve the site; so I'^d have to somehow manipulate anycast to get a connection to a different CF node which i'm not sure is possible.

i prepared a simple workaround in the form of a webextension;
it just redirects every request from danbooru.donmai.us to cdn.donmai.us

manifest.json:

{
	"description" : "Redirects all danbooru.donmai.us requests to cdn.donmai.us.",
	"manifest_version" : 2,
	"name" : "CdnBooru Request Rewriter",
	"version" : "2021.4.2",
	"homepage_url" : "https://github.com/danbooru/danbooru/issues/4780",

	"browser_specific_settings" : {
		"gecko" : {
			"id" : "cdnbooru-request-rewriter@donmai.us"}},

	"permissions" : [
		"webRequest",
		"webRequestBlocking",
		"*://*.donmai.us/*"],
	
	"background" : {
		"scripts" : ["background.js"]}
}

background.js:

'use strict';

const webextApi = (
	typeof browser !== `undefined` ? browser :
	typeof chrome !== `undefined` ? chrome :
	undefined);

if (webextApi !== undefined) {
	webextApi.webRequest.onBeforeRequest.addListener(
		onBeforeRequ, {urls : ['*://danbooru.donmai.us/*']}, [`blocking`]);
} else {
	console.log(`can't find browser api - listener not installed`);};

function onBeforeRequ({url : originalHref, method}) {
	/* redirect all danbooru.donmai.us requests to cdn.donmai.us: */
	let url = new URL(originalHref);
	url.hostname = `cdn.donmai.us`;
	console.log(`rewrote request "${originalHref}" → "${url.href}"`);
	return {redirectUrl : url.href};
};

All images are now served from cdn.donmai.us so this should work as long as that domain isn't blocked.
