For a while Reddit dot com has been blocking my browser since I use a VPN, but old reddit was still functional for me. Although I closed my reddit account just after the API-exodus, I still frequent the niche communities which has hyper-specific topics discussed.
Found to my surprise today that they are now blocking old reddit as well if I use a VPN.
Never thought that [old].[reddit].[com] would one day show that f’kin “Whoa there Pardner” page.
Fuck you spez. Really, fuck you.
Which brings me to boil is that they use ‘pardner’.
I’m not your pardner in any way. I just wanted to read an aswer in my search results for a quite specific question.
Every time I read this ‘whoa there, pardner’ I want to scream at my screen that they should shut the fuck up.
