That’s it, I get an error message whenever I try to post or comment if I’m connected to my VPN, butnot trouble if I just get disconnected. Does not fit the idea of decentralized social media I had, but overall I’m mainly curious as to the reason why it is so.
It might depend on the lemmy instance you are posting to (
lemmy.ml
) and/or where you have your account (lemmy.world
), because I don’t think that this is built into the AP protocol.I suspect at least one of these uses some kind of filtering mechanism that blocks VPN users, like cloudflare’s CDN.
btw, I think you may have mixed up the instances. The user is on .world and the post is on .ml
Other than that, you’re probably correct
Oh yeah, hahaha.
Thanks, I’ll fix it.
