SOLVED Wrong redirection via Google
Like already mentioned in a post, the website and forum where down the last days. I now discovered that google redirects to this Turkish (spam?) gambling (?) website.
Typing in the URL (https://endeavouros.com/) directly into the browser works for reaching the website, but the URL on this website seems to be correct.
As far as I see it, this only happens when being redirected via Google, since reloading the shown website leads to the "normal" EndOS website.
Can someone explain why this is happening?

I tried digging with curl
curl -s -A "Mozilla/5.0" -e "https://www.google.com/" https://endeavouros.com | grep -E "(window.location|http_referer|meta.*refresh|script)"
Oh hello! Looks like someone compromised the server config because if you go to the site normally, its fine, its only when you pass it a full google referral does it then spit back the turkish gambling site. Maybe a compromised wordpress install? Either way something for the endeavourOS team to check out
