I personally never hated it, I just prefer Steam, because it has stuff like dedicated game workshop, forums, screenshots, achievements, cards, etc. Even when I got something for free in Epic Games Store I would later proceed to buy it in Steam and play there to have all those features.
Sorry, I don’t have one I can share.
You can use mobile internet or wifi in McDonald’s then. I’m personally using VPN mainly to protect myself from my ISP and local MITM.
PS: try to register an account without VPN, then log in, then turn on VPN and see how it goes.
I’m using Proton VPN all the time with Reddit, servers from all over the world: Europe, Asia, Africa. I have 365 day streak achievement on day 320 today, so at least those past 320 days I’ve been using Reddit with Proton VPN every day (I also have killswitch permanently enabled). Also used two other lesser known providers years ago with no issues. Keep in mind though, I’m only ever using paid servers. Wouldn’t surprise me if those few free ones are banned everywhere. It takes one user to misbehave from IP to get that IP banned.
I’ve been using Reddit with VPN for years. Not sure about registering, but using existing accounts with VPN works just fine. lemmy.world allows to register but doesn’t allow to post with VPNs, this is also one of big reasons I don’t use that instance.
Even though Lemmy is made by communists, there is nothing stopping anybody from creating a total nazi instance and have their own circlejerk there. That’s just a funny example, applicable to anything else too.
Hmm, you’re right! I definitely remember this picture posted somewhere maybe like 3-4 days ago?
