> you very clearly can still browse code when you're not logged in

Linked issue clearly demonstrates otherwise.

I'm using Firefox and Brave on Linux from a residential internet provider in Europe and the 429 error triggers consistantly on both browsers. Not sure I would consider my setup questionable considering their target audience.

confusing3478··on RedNote may wall off "TikTok refugees" to prevent US influence on Chinese users
IMHO this would be a huge mistake by RedNote. From what I've seen, the more people learn about their Chinese peers the more they realize they've been seriously mislead by western sources about what the people, culture, and conditions are like. This has been a boon for anti-US/pro-China PR that the CCP could only have dreamed about.
confusing3478··on Ask HN: Which RSS reader do you use?
Oh nice! I didn't know that FreshRSS could do that via the web app, that was pretty much the only reason I used the capy reader app. I'll have to test it out, thanks!
confusing3478··on Ask HN: Which RSS reader do you use?
I self host freshrss (https://www.freshrss.org/), super easy to set up via docker and it doesn't required some over provisioned dependency setup (DB servers, etc...). It has nice/familiar keyboard shortcuts and a clean and fast interface. My only complaint is that the cloudflare-ifiation (aka enshittification) that is slowly ruining and rotting the internet prevents the fetching of RSS feeds from some news sites from your presumably affordable non hyperscaler VPS instance.

When using mobile I use https://capyreader.com/ which has first class intigration with freshrss; meaning you can add/remove/view feeds via the app and have the changes sync with freshrss. Also, probably my favorite feature of capy reader, is that when you want to view the content of an rss article that is only a summary or headline (because few people publish the full content of their articles in the rss feed anymore), you can just press a button and it will fetch it for you and display it in the reader without sending you to a browser. So much happier and more accurately informed since moving back to RSS where I can choose what I want to see vs having it filtered/fed to me via some biased algorithm.
