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 are probably banning datacenter ip addresses to prevent AI companies from skraping. They want to sell the data for money 🤷♂️
people are also use proxies, and some use datacenters for that and reddit found that out too. i think people using mobile proxies which are better.
