You cannot access reddit without either an account, or turning off your VPN. Effectively meaning that it’s difficult to access reddit privately, as they can either track you with IP or with account.

Even alternative frontends like RDX for reddit by @overdevs@lemmy.world don’t solve this issue.

I can’t believe more people haven’t left because of that.

    if they can even post/comment as a new user

    • Actually it turns out my account is 3 years old lol but I started to read it properly few weeks back.

      I’m curious to understand it more.

      In the meantime I’m exploring Fediverse too 😁

      I’m hearing new users are having a hard time doing that, even if they are not vpn, ban evading or shielding their online metrics from reddit. The spam filter is so aggressive that you can be banned very easily
