Hey everyone! I'm new here and could use some advice. I've been developing a website using React Native and have a beta version live with EAS, which has been a great experience so far. I decided to try out a domain name I bought from CloudFlare on GitHub Pages for free.
Here are the two versions:
- EAS: [https://codiac.expo.app](https://codiac.expo.app)
- GitHub Pages: [https://www.quotiac.com](https://www.quotiac.com)
I'm facing a weird issue where the EAS version is getting blocked by Apple's content restrictions, along with my friend's work WiFi. I can't figure out why, especially since the site is all about decoding a harmless quote.
I have a couple of theories:
- Maybe both sites would be blocked, but since the EAS version ends in ".app", it's getting through somehow.
- It could be that GitHub Pages gets flagged more often, but I can access other sites hosted there without issue.
Any insights on why this is happening or how I can resolve it would be super appreciated!

Your site might be getting flagged by content filters due to its usage of certain keywords or patterns. It's similar to the "Scunthorpe problem" where innocent names get mistakenly categorized. Filters at various levels (like ISP or workplace) can block sites based on their reputation even if the content is fine. You might need to ask your domain host to help get your site whitelisted or reclassified.
I love your quotes game! It's such a fun idea, and the user experience is awesome! Sorry I can't help with your issue, but I just wanted to say your site is really cool!
Honestly, your friend's work internet policy may just be overly strict. They shouldn't be browsing non-work-related sites on company machines anyway!
It could be that your subdomain is getting blocked due to the content of other sites on the same domain. That's one possibility, but honestly, I'm not totally sure either. It's worth looking into how filters classify domains based on other flagged sites.
I checked both versions, and they seem to load just fine for me!
Have you thought about using Cloudflare Pages or Workers instead of GitHub Pages, especially since you got your domain from Cloudflare? That might be worth considering.
