Hello ๐. I can't use Photon while RethinkDNS is active. I can log in to the website, but as soon as I do, the errors shown in the photo appear, and I can't use it.

This looks like a problem when it tries contacting the Lemmy instance. Is there any rule in Rethink DNS that is somehow preventing API calls to lemmy.dbzer0.com?
No, there isn't.
In the main menu > accounts, try adding a guest account for some other instance like lemmy.zip. does that server work?
