much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
At this point, I'm not even going to bother trying to go on there anymore.
Workaround if you are using uBlock Origin:
reddit.com##+js(set-cookie-reload, reddit_session, 0)
old.reddit.com##+js(set-cookie-reload, reddit_session, 0)
Add this to your filters.
Gasp
Tempting but the block page is helping remind me to stay mad at Reddit
Jokes on them I block them on the DNS level.
I'm making a list, and I'll be checking it thrice lol.
Gonna ban all major sites and IPs. The Internet used to be about the small guy not the downtown.
Evil bastards will continue to wring every bit of tracked engagement they can, now that they're publicly traded. It's the only way to satisfy capitalist markets. Woooooo!
I'm glad I'm over here now.
Unfortunately this means I can now longer find answers to some error messages.
An obvious chipping away at old reddit. They are trying to get rid of it altogether.
I consider their new format to be unusable.
It is weird how many times I have to tell myself out loud "reddit is bad for me; close that tab!"
I am grateful that facebook/instagram requires a login. It means I never have to look at it even when I am feeling weak.
Same with The Atlantic, The NY Times, and the ~~Jeff Bezos Suck Billionaire Cock Machine~~ The Washington Post.
Thank you for keeping me from reading that trash, rich people.
How can they distinguish VPN users? I'm guessing it's a IP blocklist.
Lol it's simple just watch for a shit ton of traffic from single ip addresses.
One more step away from log in to view this post. Back away from the trash fire. I see that I’m unable to login through two different VPNs.
Huh, interesting. I was wondering why twitter wasn't loading in my browser and it's because I was behind the duckduckgo VPN. I guess this is a thing websites will be doing now.
Only eveil websites.
I only go there on accident.
Started? Been having that issue for months now. It only works on VPN if you're logged on.
Certain VPN servers can go through it they haven't implemented a block for it yet. AirVPN launched some new servers that worked for a bit, but Reddit blocked them a few weeks later.
They started also blocking OLD.reddit.com this week. I made a comment a couple months ago alluding to old.reddit.com still working even though they were blocking tor and known VPNs on www.reddit.com. I'm sure about 10,000 other people figured it out at the same time as me, since it was such a simple bypass, and I'm surprised it took this long to fix.
There are still at least 2 other unpatched ways.
old.reddit.com is the only Reddit website I use. I have every reddit link automatically redirect to that website as well. I haven't been able to access old.reddit.com for months on most servers of 3 different VPNs I've used.
I have the same experience, but mostly from VPN servers located in Singapore. They're all blocked, or protected by some Cloudflare CAPTCHAS that seem to be much harder to pass than those of the early 2010s.
Fuck Reddit.
And Reddit wants you to do that without protection.
Same issue. I guess I'm never going back there. I've already stopped doing it, but from time to time a question I was researching let me to Reddit.
What's the best tool to delete your account, while also overriding all of your posts and comments?
I havent tried it, but I was told about Redact. It replaces all of your post with gibberish.
Can confirm. At this point, I just want a solution to completely remove Reddit links from search results.
