For a while Reddit dot com has been blocking my browser since I use a VPN, but old reddit was still functional for me. Although I closed my reddit account just after the API-exodus, I still frequent the niche communities which has hyper-specific topics discussed.

Found to my surprise today that they are now blocking old reddit as well if I use a VPN.

Never thought that [old].[reddit].[com] would one day show that f’kin “Whoa there Pardner” page.

Fuck you spez. Really, fuck you.

    Not logged in, still works for me.

    Consider changing your ip/location.

      Ditto, not logged in, incognito (so no cookies/history, I know it’s not actually incognito), VPN exiting in Canada. old.reddit working fine.

      Could also be a staggered rollout thing? VPN/endpoint dependent while they gather data on endpoints?
