I just wanted to peek at the front page. I guess they don’t want people to use their shit anymore. I’m starting to believe in the dead internet theory.

    Lol yeah I can’t get on it at work anymore. Goodbye to all the traffic they get from people looking for tech advice on corporate networks. Fucking morons.

        They’re banning VPNs. I have no idea why, but reddit is unusable at this point.

          It could be a simple way to prevent bots which clearly isn’t working, or perhaps users who reveal their IP address are worth more to advertisers.

            I suspect they’re able to track a lot of they have your IP address.

      i’ve never had an office job but it’s extremely obnoxious they seem to regularly filter the internet like you’re in school. there were so so many important resources (including youtube) which had legitimate educational and technical value they’d take away as some bullshit austerity ritual
