Going by comments in the post, the required login is coming in waves, so not all people may notice immediately.

Still, as Reddit is strong-arming its way across, maybe worth signaling to people there that the fediverse may be used without an account, so long as there's even one instance that implements logged-out view as the protocol allows it?

I don't have access to my account any longer, possibly VPN ban, though I never tried to recover it so I can only guess why mine is lost, else I'd post myself.

It's not even about moderation, I couldn't care less about the mods. It was reddit that wanted me to manually click 'delete' button on every single one of my 10k comments from last 13 years, each individually - which is just massively disrespectful. So I used a bot. Free version of the bot was editing into gibberish, paid version offered full deletion. I couldn't care less, just used free version and watched the mayhem. They're free to ban me, report me to admins for breaking ToS, whatever. It would be actually funny if they banned a deleted acocunt.

One of the last straws of disrespect was reddit demanding age verification for me to look at my own post history. It's enshitification all the way.
