I don't get why reddit works just fine on mullvad but blocks my icelandic VPS ip... Fine but also wtf

Someone using that ip did something naughty and it got banned. Maybe, idk 🤷‍♂️

I used to like reddit, something happened for me in the last 3 months that got me out

Only I use that IP, it's exclusive to my private VPS

Maybe it's a recycled dhcp address. Did it work previously and then stop one day?

It's also possible that reddit is just blocking an entire block of IPs because of lazy administration and you got caught up in it.

First time I checked was yesterday, but I have this VPS for more than 1 year now.

What does it actually tell you?

Don't meddle in shitcoins. Reddit, X, Facebook, LinkedIn are all fiat based shitcoins.

They are not worthy of your energy and focus.

Wrong

You get to spend your time and energy only once. Choose wisely.

Hmmm it's blocking me on mullvad 👀

yeah alot of Mullvads IPs seem to be blocked by reddit.

Probably your icelandic one hasnt been flagged ... yet

It's the other way around, I'm not blocked using mullvad but I'm blocked on my VPS that only I use.

Maybe it's in a known/suspected Datacenter IP range?

That's my theory, but if it's true, it's so fucking arbitrary

Another possibility is that you are not the first one "renting" this "dedicated" IP and your predecessor did something "wrong".

Possible but I've been renting for more than 1 year now. If an IP can get tainted for longer than that, that's really ridiculous.

Agreed

ohh I see.. that is weird. Maybe they are blocking blocks of addresses associated with VPSs.

Pain in the ass thats for sure!

Reddit also blocks some mullvad servers

Apparently not all

Got blocked multiple times and am using the VPN 24/7
