Also, in Shanghai, also works fine without VPN. The GFW can vary by province. I remember HN being blocked in Shenzhen but not Shanghai six years ago.

There are a website called https://www.17ce.com/, it's a speed test service, but their server mainly located in China (Of course, it's a Chinese website), so it can be used to test status of some GFW blocks.

That website tells me GitHub is fine, and that's all, I guess.

This is the speed test result for Google.com https://imgur.com/eOoxthu
