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.
