Is that why reddit was IP blocking people from seeing content even though they weren't logged in
?
That happened to me as well but it worked in incog windows for some reason
Also not incognito.
Are you using a VPN?
Does reddit block VPNs?
they do. the common ones. the other way to get around its using complicated methods proxies, anti-detect browsers, new devices in a specific setup to avoid reddit detection.
yes, they aren't as effective as kroger.com or usps.com, though. You can occasionally find unblocked vpn servers w/reddit
Nope.
Huh, weird. Maybe you're just cursed. You didn't happen to buy an amulet from a gypsy woman?
That happened to me the other day. I did absolutely nothing about it and it had cleared up 15 minutes later.
If you're not using a VPN, try resetting your IP by unplugging the router for like 30s - that is, if you're still interested.
Fun fact: the Startpage proxy works on Reddit, albeit buggy:
spoiler
I did this too and I was still blocked. I ended up creating an account and was able to view content logged into an account. I really didn't want a reddit account though.
