I don't know much about computers so this had left me scratching my head and slamming F5 for a solid day. I think I should mention that I live in Athens, Greece. Anyway, the last time I could access both sites was Friday (1st of July) I think. Also, I couldn't connect to explosm.net either, but that didn't bother me as much as reddit and voat. I would get a message that the site was not responding (or something along those lines, I don't remember). I used three different browsers (firefox, chrome and Internet Explorer) and I would still get a similar message. Everything else worked fine.
Now I'm using proXPN (basic account because I'm broke as fuck), connected in a network over at bumblefuck EDIT ~~nowhere~~ somewhere (Chicago, IL) and I'm already noticing a drop at my network speed - but everything works fine, all things considered.
I still can't connect to voat or reddit if I don't use the proXPN thingy, which leaves me really, really confused.

There's a joke that shows how Greeks think (although exaggerated)
There were three people in a room, an English man, a German man and a Greek man - and God suddenly appears to them.
"I will grant one wish to each one of you - starting with you!" and he points at the Englishman
"I want the most expensive Rolex watch!" the Englishman exclaimed
God stretched out his arm and it appeared on his palm
"I want the most luxurious Mercedes ever made!" demanded the German
God points at a space and the most luxurious Mercedes ever made appears out of thin air
Now God turns to the Greek man and asks him, "And what is your wish?"
"I want my neighbor's goat to die! Yeah! I don't have a goat - so my neighbor shouldn't have one!"

I've never been there but it's one of the most famous cities on the planet. I thought it was funny OP apparently never heard of it.
