REALITY IPs blocked

[donnyxray]

With the start of China's National Congress today, hundreds of my REALITY associated IP addresses have been blocked. IPs associated with other protocols have not.

Anyone else experiencing something similar?

I saw this shared on a Discord from someone whose VPS was blocked using reality. This was from their VPS supplier.

What other protocols are you using that work well? xhttps?

Oddly, Wireguard and OpenVPN still work. I think, at least in part, that's due to my users choosing XTLS mostly. So the other protocols may be flying under the radar.

Oh so you aren't using xhttps?

If reality is being detected now, it may be time for a protocol switch, but not sure what is considered the best xray protocol at the moment. reality was always considered the best.

I don't want to put a CDN in the middle, and it's unclear to me what XHTTPS improves when not using a CDN middle-man.

Same issue. I've been using the Reality setup stably for over a year, but several of my IPs got blocked just in the past few days.
Are there any better alternatives out there right now? Would xhttps + Reality be a good choice?

[donnyxray]

It depends why XTLS was blocked. Which is unclear to me and may be specific to the way we set it up, not necessarily a protocol issue.

[donnyxray]

The biggest flaw in our setup is that we use a SNI that is not native to our IP ranges. If that caused our IPs to be blocked, the same issue will be true for XHTTP+REALITY.

This looks like a TLS fingerprinting issue. Rebuilding with https://github.com/XTLS/REALITY/pull/29 seems to have fixed it for now. I haven't tested it extensively yet, though, so I can't say for sure.
