I haven’t had any problems upvoting or accessing lemmy content, but yesterday, whenever I tried leaving a comment on a post, I triggered a 403 error (both from the Mlem app and my browser) which identified the use of VPN as an issue. Once I disabled my VPN, I was able to post the comment.
Now, while trying to make this post, I am experiencing errors too.
Has anyone else experienced this, and have you found work arounds?
I only turned it off to verify it was responsible for the issue. Otherwise, yeah, it’s always on. Didn’t realize instances could block VPNs or even identify they were in use.
