Reddit appears to be blocking VPNs (unverified)
(beehaw.org)
I’m on iOS 17.1.1 using Safari. I also have Proton VPN enabled in the states but if I try to visit any page on the website I see this:
If I disable it, the page will load.
Edit: as per a comment, this may not be a VPN only issue.
Additional edit: Reddit has written an official post stating it was an issue after production code deployment and was reverted
Momentum is hard to change
Reddit has high inertia 👍
I mean it literally does. It's the same reason Twitter hasn't completely imploded yet, despite Musk doing his best to turn it into a cesspit. People stay on it because it has lots of people and their niche subs, which makes it harder for people to leave and coalesce in new areas and recreate niche subs, which feeds into the cycle
Agree 👍
And some would say Elon succeeded with the cesspit.
