Use a different instance that is federated with lemmy.world?

Edit: I just tried, and I can log into and use my lemmy.world account just fine over a VPN. Are you sure you don't have a VPN issue instead?

Lemmy.world takes the official stance of blocking VPNs:

We do NOT block login or viewing. We only block certain destructive / distruptive api endpoints abused for spam ( E.g. posting, commenting, registering )

If so, then this comment should probably be updated https://lemmy.world/comment/12079632

Try to post with VPN and you will see the issue.

Whatever you just did is the solution. How did you post?

Ironically, aussie.zone has a 4 days delay with LW, so they will only see this in 4 days: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/40460535

Just use another server. No specific reason to be on that one.

Lemmy.world is federated, use any server that it federates with, as you're doing right now.

Could you elaborate that lemmy.world is blocked in UAE? you mean UAE is blocking lemmy.world or lemmy.world blocks your connection?

For now i suggest you using a federated instance like lemm.ee, discuss.online any that is federated with lemmy.world.

You probably know why we are blocking vpn/tor posting things.

Reddthat.com works fine with Tor.
