Going by comments in the post, the required login is coming in waves, so not all people may notice immediately.
Still, as Reddit is strong-arming its way across, maybe worth signaling to people there that the fediverse may be used without an account, so long as there’s even one instance that implements logged-out view as the protocol allows it?
I don’t have access to my account any longer, possibly VPN ban, though I never tried to recover it so I can only guess why mine is lost, else I’d post myself.
I had my first reddit account for 10 years, then went through them every few months to dumb bans. it provides users a natural quitting point and makes gathering data on someone harder, which seem to go against their interests but I saw that’s a good thing. let them run it into the ground.
