Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

No. They ban VPNs, so if I happen to follow a link that leads there, I get the "login to see this" page, shrug, and go somewhere else.
It's easy to circumvent, but rarely worth the effort. The content was getting mostly shit-worthless even before I left. It's only gotten worse.
There's not useful, factual information on 4chan, these days.
Same. Same reason. Same thing.
I will admit that I've gone to reddit on a VPN with no sign in to look at 🎶porn-o-graphy🎶!
That's probably the only content of value there, anymore.
Is it easy to circumvent? I use Tailscale to route everything through a VPN but use an App Connector to route Reddit through my home network, but I really hate that.
If you have an account you can use a VPN. Never had trouble
I don’t have an account and don’t participate, I use Reddit for informational purposes only.
I think if you have an account you can still use a VPN.
Yes, if you log in, you can get in. I deleted my account, and every post and comment I'd ever made, when I left, and I'll be damned before I create another account there.
