I'm not your pardner, guy!
Is this new? This is the first time Reddit has ever flagged me for using a VPN, trying to force me into signing in/up.
I was just following some search links, from DDG.
If you change the www (ie www.reddit.com) to old (ie old.reddit.com) it will let you in under most circumstances
for now
I use kagi.com as a search engine and it automatically does that for links I click on thru them. I think there is a browser extension for Firefox that will do this for you as well.
It doesn't work for me on multiple occasions. Sometimes it works, sometimes it won't, I don't know what's the problems.
I think it only works if the post is old?
I get this a lot. I use the libredirect browser extension to open reddit pages in libreddit now.
Is libreddit still working? I remember the project was canned with the api changes
It has been forked and it's called redlib now
I’ve had the same when using a VPN on my PC. Have a look at libredirect, that would probably help with this issue.
One reason I've stopped using reddit entirely. They require fingerprinting you. If you do a good job and they can't fingerprint you, you get that screen. It is NOT blocked by IP of the VPN as some here have said. You can easily see the content through the same VPN while not logged on as long as you have enough identifiable tracking information to reasonably guess who you are.
It's a great test now. If I'm ever let into view reddit now, I must have seriously screwed up somewhere in my security chain.
Replace www by old in the url to access old reddit
The bigger problem is asinine mods and you can't route around them simply by going to old.
No, it's not new. It's been around for years.
LibRedirect extension
Been like this for a little while. If your vpn supports p2p just use that. Or use tor.
"If you VPN supports p2p just use that" what does this mean? Use p2p to access reddit? Is that a thing?
Reddit has blocked certain IP addresses from accessing its website. (In this case VPN IP addresses) you can use a peer 2 peer network through a vpn provider or tor which would not be on reddit block list.
They may be refering to a residential vpn.
(Yes, I know my source has a conflict of intrest)
If you go through my post history you can see I posted the same thing several months ago. If anything we've probably given reddit specific information on what VPNs you and I are using.
