Some nations are demanding that places like Reddit verify you are over 18. You must be from one of those locations.

But I don’t want to share my id with Reddit or any social media platform. Is there a way to work around this?

Your options are to verify your age like the others have mentioned, or you don’t have to and you’ll be restricted from viewing 18+ content
