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 @[email protected] don’t solve this issue.

I can’t believe more people haven’t left because of that.

    They seem to not only use IP based techniques - they block me if I use wireguard to my dedicated server (who’s public IP range has been mine for longer than wireguard exists and almost as long as Reddit exists) while I can access it directly from that IP without issues. And if I dial back into my home network it’s basically 50/50 if it works or not.
