I’m on iOS 17.1.1 using Safari. I also have Proton VPN enabled in the states but if I try to visit any page on the website I see this:

If I disable it, the page will load.

Edit: as per a comment, this may not be a VPN only issue.

Additional edit: Reddit has written an official post stating it was an issue after production code deployment and was reverted

    It appears as if reddit is trying so hard to fuck everyone off the site. And yet so many people aren’t paying attention and just visit it every time.

    They should just make a new landing page: “We don’t want you here! Go somewhere else!”

      I wouldn’t be surprised if they are doing it to block AI from hoovering up all of their data.

          I Imagine they’ll use whatever connections are provided to them by their AI overlords.

          The VPn may be necessary if their IP address ranges are being blocked, or it could be to get around an API limit?
