Changing Sparkle Update Domain from su.virtualbuddy.app ?

[tree-frog]

This is a minor issue, but I thought I would draw your attention to it:

I am unable to update VirtualBuddy when using the internet at my workplace. I believe this is due to a corporate blocklist that blocks su.virtualbuddy.app, which appears to hold the Sparkle update information (?).

My workplace in general has a fairly permissive firewall, but it will be rather difficult for IT to inspect this domain since it doesn't provide a user-facing website & the main project is hosted on Github.

I can work around this issue easily, but it's likely it could pop up for other users without them understanding why they can't update.

Would it be feasible to have the updater to use (or fall back upon) e.g. Github for hosting the Sparkle data?

Sorry, but there's nothing I can do right now.

I can't host updates on GitHub for a variety of reasons, and changing the domain is not an option because it would require changing a bunch of my update set up. I use this same pattern for all of my apps and never had any such reports.

No problem - thanks for letting me know. I also couldn't find any reports on this & had to do some digging to understand why it was failing.

Hopefully this discussion is useful to anyone else who encounters the issue.
