I just happened to wander over to that inferior site reddit.

I use a browser on phone and I don't log in and noticed that it only displayed 5 stories, instead of it's usual infinite scrolling.

  • I tried with and without a VPN set to Australia
  • Desktop mode browser was prompting to create an account or login, with no bypass

Interestingly, setting a VPN to some other countries had it working as normal.

Has the forced login begun?

I tried on desktop using Brave (a chrome offshoot), and it gave me the same as mobile: .

There's no way to bypass.

Interestingly, when I loaded on Firefox with the same VPN Aus exit, it was operating as previously.

I seem to have some situations where Private browsing window doesn't work, but a normal browsing window does. Also, sometimes switching to a different VPN server seems to help.

They probably used AI and vibe coded it 😂

Seems like they fingerprint you. Eg, After visiting a sub or two, Firefox no longer works either ....
