Reddit is blocking VPN users from its site

Reddit has been blocking users who are using VPNs from its site unless they log into their Reddit accounts. Why is that? And what to do?

You cannot access reddit without either an account, or turning off your VPN. Effectively meaning that it’s difficult to access reddit privately, as they can either track you with IP or with account.

Even alternative frontends like RDX for reddit by @overdevs@lemmy.world don’t solve this issue.

I can’t believe more people haven’t left because of that.

    they do block Mullvad

    Not well enough it seems. Still reachable for me on some exits, but not all.

      Yeah for sure. I’m not motivated enough to see the content over there though so if my current exit node is blocked I don’t even bother with trying to view whatever it was.
