Which doesn't help if a person gets IP-banned from the site.
There is no such thing as ip-bans on Lemmy
I kept getting a Forbidden message for about a week a while back shortly before the first update to 0.18. After the update the forbidden message disappeared. I seemed to be the only one affected and when I used a VPN it allowed me to access the site.
When I asked around on other instances online it turns out you can be IP banned entirely from the site and it had happened to a few people.
The only contraversial things I did/said was to jokingly ask an admin "how long before you turn into Spez?".
