Change the url to old. instead of www. and you can bypass it.

I love that this is the solution to all the logged-out user crap they've pulled lately.

Alas, I suspect it means they will drop old. in the near future.

It also works with nsfw content they put behind an appwall.

STFU with that BS.

I hate this one. Particularly when I'm looking for SFW info.

I straight up choose to stay ignorant if it's the only option

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 18 points 11 months ago (1 children)

We’ve been speculating they will drop old. for quite a while now. Im wondering why they haven’t yet.

[–] r00ty@kbin.life 2 points 11 months ago

Yep. Maybe they want to keep the MAU figure up while getting all the data from the majority that use normal / the app.

I know I only use old and not logged in if there's something I need to see on there.

[–] obinice@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Nope, doesn't help I'm afraid.

[–] centof@lemm.ee 10 points 11 months ago

Hmm, It's worked for me recently. I guess ymmv depending on your IP.
