they will detect your alternate account through fingerprinting you
it’s where I am currently, unable to use any of my 100% wholesome and positively contributing accounts because I shared the opinion of “Oh no, anyways” on a burning Tesla dealership post, got banned from world news with no explanation, asked for elaboration and did not receive it, and then continued to post in that sub with another account.
did I ban evade? yes. did I first attempt to find out why I was banned? yes. was I ignored and thus continued to participate with other accounts, being careful to say nothing even close to provocative with those accounts? yes.
didn’t matter. they identified it as the same account, they banned it.
I’ve been treated the same way, lost about 7 accounts each over 12 years old because some mod didn’t like me telling off an incel and from there sent it to admins and from there it’s been repeated bans and shadowbans.
I am done with reddit, I’ve seen behind the curtain in my time there, I know how bad it really is. The whole platform is now an AI training-bed and in some communities more than half the users appear to be bots. Very clever, very well-disguised, but you can tell if you check their history. They want to be able to control large-scale narratives and it’s working.
But if anyone wants to try to keep fighting the bot army, you can create a new account by deleting all your reddit cookies and browsing history, resetting your modem for a minute, then making a new account with a new email. (Use Gmail or another name-brand on, they now shadowban accounts made from disposable emails.)
Also, do not use a VPN ever. Instant permanent shadowban, and you have to start all over.
From there you just need to establish some karma history so you can post. Memes and other content-grind subreddits let even new accounts last I checked.
If you don’t want your account banned immediately, do not make political opinions, do not argue with anyone, do not sass reddit even through they deserve far worse. Don’t reply to yourself or your alt accounts, they can now tell immediately. Do not report anyone, they now will use reporting as an excuse to ban you if they decide they don’t like you.
