Worked in our tests5 of 5 tasks, 2026-10-22

Verified · 2026-10-22

Yes, since 22 Oct 2026. On 15 Oct 2026 Reddit refused every page from our servers ('You've been blocked by network security' in Singapore, Frankfurt and the US). Reddit traffic now leaves through a different exit network, and on 22 Oct 2026 the front page, r/popular and a thread loaded through all four regions without logging in. Indonesia lifted its own Reddit block on 2 Jul 2026 after about 11 years.

What is a Reddit proxy?

The short answer

A Reddit proxy is a server that fetches Reddit for you and returns the page through your browser. Instead of your device asking reddit.com directly, your browser asks anyproxy.site, and we ask Reddit on your behalf. The site sees our server, not you. Your network sees anyproxy.site, not Reddit.

That single hop is what lets a blocked Reddit page open. No app to install, no account to make. Six regions, sorted by real latency.

Reddit infrastructure, verified

Reddit itself is healthy

When Reddit will not load, Reddit's own servers are rarely the cause. Here is a dated snapshot of the real reddit.com infrastructure from DomainScan on 2026-10-05 — compare against your network's symptoms.

15 of 15 public DNS resolvers returned an address for reddit.com in this snapshot. A resolver with no answer is not proof of blocking anywhere. If your own network returns nothing or a different address, the problem is more likely on your network than at Reddit.

How to unblock Reddit

Three steps, no account

1

Type reddit.com

It is already in the box above. AnyProxy opens the site's home page; go deeper from there.

2

Pick your region

We start you on the nearest server. A closer region means smoother loading.

Browse

Reddit opens in this tab. The tests on this page show which features worked for us.

Reddit — the timeline

Dated events in Reddit's censorship history

  1. Aug 2015Roskomnadzor orders Russian ISPs to block a Reddit page with instructions for growing psilocybin mushrooms; Reddit hides it from Russian IP addresses and the block is lifted the next day. source
  2. Aug 2015Meduza: Russia unblocks Reddit. source
  3. Nov 2015Turkey's telecom authority TIB blocks reddit.com under Law No. 5651 (decision dated 13/11/2015); it was reported accessible again about a day later. source
  4. Jul 2026Indonesia's Komdigi approves restoring access to reddit.com after about 11 years, citing Reddit's geoblocking of illegal content for Indonesian users and its registration as a private electronic system operator (Director General Alexander Sabar). source

What the proxy cannot do for Reddit

Honest caveats

  • Reddit refused our servers until 22 Oct 2026. Reddit traffic now uses a separate exit network; if you see 'blocked by network security' again, switch region and tell us.
  • old.reddit.com sends everyone to a login page since July 2026 (Reddit's own change); use www.reddit.com.
  • Reddit closed its logged-out .json endpoints in May 2026 and is retiring RSS feeds in Nov 2026, so feed-style URLs will not load through any proxy.
  • We browse logged out. Logging in through a proxy is possible, but only ever type your password on the real reddit.com page.

Need every app on your device covered, not just one browser tab? That is a VPN's job — see proxy vs VPN for when each is the right tool.

FAQ

Reddit, specifically

Is AnyProxy affiliated with Reddit?
No. AnyProxy is an independent web proxy service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Reddit or its operators. All Reddit trademarks and brand references on this page identify the destination site — the real reddit.com — that our proxy helps you reach. If Reddit is your account provider, only enter your Reddit password on the genuine reddit.com URL after the proxy loads it, never on anyproxy.site itself.
Why did Reddit say 'You've been blocked by network security' through a proxy?
Reddit refuses addresses that belong to datacenters. On 15 Oct 2026 it refused AnyProxy's Singapore, Frankfurt and US servers. Since 22 Oct 2026 Reddit requests leave AnyProxy through a different exit network and the block page no longer appears.
Does switching AnyProxy region fix Reddit?
It is not needed any more: on 22 Oct 2026 Reddit loaded through all four regions. If one region ever shows the block page, another region is worth a try.
Is Reddit still blocked in Indonesia?
No. Komdigi restored access in early July 2026 after about 11 years (Antara, 3 Jul 2026).

On managed networks

Open Reddit on managed devices

Managed networks — managed Wi-Fi, café PCs, hostel internet — often filter Reddit at the DNS or IP level. Content filters used by schools and companies sort sites into categories such as "social", and administrators choose which categories to block.

Because AnyProxy is a website — not an app or extension — a Chromebook or managed browser that restricts installs still opens it in Chrome. Type reddit.com and Reddit opens in the same tab, as far as the site allows it; see the tests above. Note: your organisation's acceptable-use policy still applies; check it before use.
