Blocked only on all my machines. Reddit iOS app is fine, Safari on mac OS is fine as well.

I too was worried I was IP banned!

Hopefully this will be permanent.

No more Reddit procrastination for me I guess. I hope so too.

Same here, thought it must be me! Related to the earlier http3 issue?

That's what I guessed, but the http3 fix has no effect

Changing user-agent doesn't do anything either
