I can’t create posts or comments on a community that I created, on LW, while logged in on my LW account.
I can post just fine from my lemmy dot one account to the same LW community?

I turned my VPN off and was able to comment.
What gives? Is open source Lemmy blocking VPN’s?
lemmy world is proxied behind cloudflare, anti vpn is part of the anti spam
it’s not lemmy blocking it
it’s not lemmy blocking it
Actually, it absolutely is Lemmy blocking it.

Edit: from the above…
it is most likely because we [Lemmy World admins] have implemented a block for VPN & Tor users.
no lemmy means the Lemmy protocol, not the lemmy.world instance
hence why op was able to post on another instance

Ah, gotcha.
That’s like saying the guy who hired a hitman to kill his wife isn’t responsible because he didn’t pull the trigger himself.
Thanks. What a ridiculous restriction. Is LW defederated from lemmy.one? I can’t see my other replies from the other account. Is that because dot One allows VPNs?
Each instance shows who they’re linked with. Lemmy.world’s is https://lemmy.world/instances
Yup, found that and both are federated. Maybe there’s a disconnect somewhere because of CF.
