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.
It’s not a straight up block, sometimes reddit disallows you from seeing threads when you’re on a vpn, but it’s not always consistent.
