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.
Trying to recreate a worse version of reddit karma and locking their instance behind a login page/requiring an account to view anything
I just opened piefed.social in a private window and it works fine
Was not like that yesterday
slightly less worst than fb, fb would block people unless they login.(there is a workaround with ublock though.
Been so long since I tried using Facebook. And haven’t tried threads.
Just sad how many are following in the Twitter footsteps of everything needing a login like it’s a support page
