Reddit started blocking VPN users on old.reddit.com - lemm.ee

At this point, I’m not even going to bother trying to go on there anymore.

Still works for Mullvad.
Depends on which node I guess. I’m on mullvad and its not working.
One of the biggest downsides of a VPN; you share an exit node with lots of other people, only takes one bad actor to get your exit node ip banned
Even if you don’t share the nodes, they know whether an ip belongs to a datacenter or not and so ban them preemptively. My IPs are all just mine and are clean as a whistle, but most of them are banned on lots of services anyway.

They don’t block datacenters, they specifically block publicly available VPNs. It’s not just Reddit that does this.

I have a few VPSs. I can connect to them with Wireguard and browse Reddit and the other VPN blocking services without an issue.

I got the screen while using a Socks proxy on my VPS. Not even the biggest VPS provider out there…

Interesting. Is it a free VPS or something? Your VPS provider most likely isn’t the same company that owns the datacenter.

My VPSs are in different parts of the world and they’re in datacenters owned by different companies. My VPSs are not expensive either.

Not a free VPS at all. I would look into it, but I don’t remember the biggest datacenters being in that country.
