Is lemmy.dbzer0 geo-locked? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I am unable to access the website without a VPN. My original IP is from a country in Asia.

Is this a temporary lockdown? It is a hassle to turn on VPN just for browsing Lemmy on my phone since my other most-used apps do not play well with a VPN. On a laptop, it is not much of an issue. But this will severely limit the time I peruse Lemmy.

Alternatively, I could use my lemmy.world alt, but I will lose access to dbzer0 specific communities.

Thank you for responding and offering technical support. I am able to access the instance without a VPN. I changed nothing on my end, besides turning off the VPN.

Please let me know if I should still share you my IP via direct message.

    If you are not blocked anymore, then I suspect db0 solved the issue with some tweaks.

    No need if you aren't seeing trouble anymore. Pleaser don't hesitate to reach out if things look blocked again!
