I am a 80+ year old lichess member, a patron for many years - check my profile. I do use a reliable VPN, not a cheap one. Nevertheless, most of the times access is denied. Had to empty cache as well as cookies for several times, before at random I could log in.
I do understand Lichess is wary about probably unreliable VPN's. Then again: blocking overall accepted VPNs should not be a problem or an issue over here. It's a menace this way. I've donated few minutes ago. Then again, I'd rather delete my account over here rather then accepting this foolish behaviour. I do like Lichess. It's up to them to keep paying members like me to stay around. Fix it!
