This app gets suggested as reddit/discord alternative that's privacy-conscious but like wtf it says I've been blocked ever since I got it. It's probably because I'm in a conservative 3rd world country but wtf?

Can't use VPNs to bypass it either. Anyone who's used it, is there a workaround, or do I just have to ditch the app?

Issue is with Countersocial, not Lemmy. Lemmy works fine

Sorry. I (and probably others here as well) have never of it before. I thought it was a Lemmy client or server, due to the community you posted in.
