Basically the subject is in title. I recently discovered lemmy.world doesn’t allow commenting/posting from VPNs. Some VPNs are working, but it seems to be a matter of time until they appear on publicly sourced lists and banned.

    I never had issues posting on Lemmy when using vpn. If Lemmy starts blocking my vpn I will stop using Lemmy.

    I use a VPN 24/7 and I haven’t had any issues with Lemmy for posting/commenting. I know reddit fully blocks my VPN with some IP addresses unless I use old.reddit, which is part of why I’ve just had it and left.

      I was just going to say that. On VPN always, Reddit blocks pretty much all of my VPNs IPs, but this is the first time I hear of it happening in any Lemmy instance. I’m on lemmy.ml using NordVPN.

        Yeah same here, I’m on lemmy.ml using Mullvad and never had an issue. If an instance ever did block it though I’d just leave, that’s also why I never use reddit anymore lol.

    Posted through a Proton connection, what’s your VPN? As others have stated this is likely not .world directly, but rather a symptom of Cloudflare (DDoS) protections.

      I also use Proton VPN. Most issues were with DE servers I tried, multiple DE servers (like DE#526) didn’t work for me, but some others seem to be working. I also tried some other countries and they were working.
