Started to get this message when accessing Reddit. I use LibreWolf as a browser, which does indeed provide a more generic user agent to combat fingerprinting, but nothing out of the ordinary either (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/119.0). Anyone else experiencing this?

Edit: seems to have resolved itself. Thanks for confirming I wasn’t doing anything wrong. Let’s hope this isn’t some new algorithm to test if for insufficient fingerprinting so Reddit can kick ad-resistant users.

    Especially considering the post from a little while ago showing that admins of Lemmy instances can see what individual users are upvoting and downvoting. There’s nothing to stop a bad actor from setting up an instance and just harvesting data.

      Everyone can see that via kbin. for example, here’s your comment.

      (not sure about downvotes… you might have to work a bit more to see those.)
