My listnook feed is filled with so many strait of Hormuz is open/closed news I'm struggling to know what's new and how many times it's happened today.

Apparently it never opened, it’s Trump just lying and Iran is kinda letting ships by on a case by case basis.

Trump lying? No no that can't be the case, it must be some _other_ explanation

The amount of corruption going on right before our eyes is so insane. I’m not sure if global market manipulation has happened on this scale before?

Lol no it hasn’t #GlobalizationGate But seriously it’s affecting so many countries. I saw that a gallon of gas in the Philippines costs basically an entire hour of minimum wage atm.

Look, at this point it's not market manipulation by Trump and his obsequious day drunk cabinet. It's just a broken market hand waving at the news to justify its irrationality. Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me once a day for fifteen months, and I think we all know you're not fooling anyone, and we're both really phoning in the charade.

But if ships are passing thru, it also isn't closed. It's regulated.

Like how Iran announced open and close on the same day. They are all assholes trying to manipulate market.
1

It’s purely because the US never lifted their blockade of Iranian ports. The entire ceasefire was based on that premise.

Icy_Acanthisitta7741 Apr 19, 2026 +1
Eh, US didn't announced they lifted the blockade. This was solely on Iranian announcement. Do you have the ceasefire agreement so we can also have a look?
1
AuroraFinem Apr 19, 2026 +1
It opened for about 24-48 hours and closed because the US didn’t lift their blockade of Iranian ports.

I don't even believe that the Strait of Hormuz exists at this point, it's gotten so bad.

I don't think it would be any clearer if you were an actual negotiator either.

Schrödinger's strait. The strait is both open *and* closed depending on who you are listening to at that exact moment in time.

Someone needs to make a "ishormuzopen.com" website with either a "Yes it's open!" and a happy smiling Ali Khamenei photo background or a "No it's shut!" and an arms crossed frowning Ali background.

BBC has a live updates thread that you can follow. So many news stories get posted to listnook and they're already out of date... [https://www.bbc.com/news/live/cly90l3ln30t](https://www.bbc.com/news/live/cly90l3ln30t)

Someone should post Hormuz operating hours. It seems like these past few weeks it's been closing and opening on a regular consistent basis. Like a regular mall.

The strait of Hormuz is currently like that one patisserie where literally every morning that *you* go there it’s closed when a patisserie should be open, but then you see your friends posting photos of amazing croissants from there in the group chat like ~10 mins later. Time is a malleable construct to places like that.

The best case and i think the most likely scenario for this entire shit show wont be a great big treaty/deal to end the war but instead it will drag on like this and slowly lose steam as trump gets bored and moves on to the next thing. Meanwhile there will be constant violations of the ceasefire and both US and iran will start to simply exempt countries from the blockade or make some sort of deals with those countries individually and eventually the blockade will be just on paper. Maybe iran will have some cash and the US navy will hang around for a bit. Israel will continue to strike iran once in a while like they used to and iran will fund its proxies to cause trouble iran will have internal political unrest until someone more hardline consolidates power because anytime the US steps in fo regime change, someone worse has always taken over the ssid country

So, is Israel now bombing Hezbollah?

I get so confused by contradicting reports or perhaps non-synchronous publications. How am I to plan my day without knowing if the Strait of Hormuz is open or closed and by whom? Is the ayatollah's regime opening what it promised to close or Trump's regime closing what it promised to open?

This is such a stupid timeline.
1
HinDae085 Apr 19, 2026 +1
Imma guess the obligation was we open and you stop the blockade. US, in typical style under Trump, kept the blockade going.

If only there were some way to convert the repeated opening and closing action into some new source of energy...

I don’t think anyone fulfilled their obligations. Pressure is leverage, keep the blockade going as a bargaining chip.
