Seems contrary to the whole lemmyverse/fediverse model, doesn’t it?
Okay, I get it. Incidentally, strict initial approvals on smaller instances don’t seem annoying at all now, after reading these comments.
Thanks everyone!

VPN does very little to stop fingerprinting done by websites. Your IP address is only a tiny bit of information in a vast ocean of data that websites can collect from you. “VPN = privacy” is a marketing scam. The only ones it protects your from is your ISP. VPN’s purpose is to hide you web traffic from your ISP, bypass website bans kindly mandated by the government to “protect” you and enforced by ISP, or to hide torrent traffic (again detected by your ISP), etc.
