If you’re posting on .world, I believe it’s the server. Lots of sites ban blocks of IPs associated with VPNs due to bad actors using them. You can sometimes avoid this by changing VPN servers.
Sounds like reddit. They started banning blocks of VPN IPs after they locked down their API (presumably to prevent screen scraping). If you really want to visit, proton stealth protocol is able to get through sometimes, and old.reddit seems to get through all of the time.
