Reddit gets shittier by the day. Currently, they’re blocking users using a VPN, they’re trying to force you to either login to read, or to stop using a VPN so they can have even more of your data. Reddit should be burned to the ground, it’s a data-harvesting cesspool, run by a bunch of greedy dickheads. I wish everyone would wake up and leave at the same time, destroy their IPO.
I’m not a Reddit exponent by any means, but I’ve yet to run into an issue using the site on Mullvad at the router level. There’s unfortunately communities there that can offer useful information not easily found by search engines.
Yeah, unfortunate because all that information could easily move here if Reddit users stopped feeding the machine.
The site is being blocked intermittently for numerous VPN users, using Proton, Mullvad, Nord etc. They say it’s a code error but it’s clearly trying to force people to use their crappy app, or login with no privacy.
I stopped commenting on Reddit and deleted my account but if a search result had some info I needed on Reddit I would still go there to read but not comment. But ya, a while back they started blocking me because of vpn usage. So I started blocking them out of any search results. It works both ways. Thanks for letting me know my suspicions were correct JimmyPicket. But that is how I ended up here.
Is your mullvadvpn static? I don’t consistently use vpn so when I switch it on sometimes I need to change to get a new address to not get the vpn block.

There’s a way to bypass the blockade. swap “www” with “old” in the web address and you’re good to go.
I do that, but I don’t like the layout. Thanks though.
