This is what I get when going to Reddit while connected to Proton VPN, connected to a server in the same country I live in.

    Yea I ran into the same thing about 2 months ago, haven’t even gone back to check it. https://lemmy.world/post/14769888

    I’d just be grateful you found Lemmy. I suspect Reddit is mostly bot spam at this point hidden as real users. Sucks that so many old posts are now being gatekept, a pinnacle of the real enshittification that’s happening right now.

      Reddit is a high proportion of tech issue search results. “just use lemmy” doesn’t solve anything

      Oh for sure.

      It’s just sometimes it feels a bit lonely in my main communities. I’m a francophone Quebecois and there isn’t a lot of us on Lemmy. Most of them didn’t seem to care about the whole API thing and don’t seem to care about the bots and the AI either.

      The Quebecois are creatures of habit and one they’ve settled down on something it’s hard to make them change.
