I'm not your pardner, guy! - eviltoast

Is this new? This is the first time Reddit has ever flagged me for using a VPN, trying to force me into signing in/up.

I was just following some search links, from DDG.

    Been like this for a little while. If your vpn supports p2p just use that. Or use tor.

      “If you VPN supports p2p just use that” what does this mean? Use p2p to access reddit? Is that a thing?

        Reddit has blocked certain IP addresses from accessing its website. (In this case VPN IP addresses) you can use a peer 2 peer network through a vpn provider or tor which would not be on reddit block list.
