Could dlang.org filter IP addresses from China and use another 
gravatar mirrors? Here's one solution:

Now I have to always open the VPN to access the forum. This may

Have a look at web.d in DFeed, maybe you can tweak it to support 
alternative providers?

https://github.com/CyberShadow/DFeed/blob/master/web.d#L1243

(otherwise this repo is probably the best place to report issues)
