He's probably talking about reddit They no longer allow vpn's or any user obfuscators to browse the site

No they don't. I use the site with a VPN often and it generally works

Are you logged in? I can't access Reddit with a VPN if I'm not logged in

I can access old.reddit.com with VPN. The new shitty layout will block you but there are browser extensions to automatically redirect. I'm never logged in since I deleted my accounts a few months ago.
