No warning, not even a "Don't do it again email" - I had a work account, that was logged in on my works laptop, I made a comment critical of Netanyahu, and the Gaza genocide, which got that account banned from /pics. This was months ago, then I made a comment on pics, on my main account. That's it, gone, banned.

I even have another spare account, from 2008, logged in to that, that's banned too. FFS!

No luck on appeals, so I guess no more reddit, ever again. Anyone managed to get around this?

You can't get around the bans. They move heaven and earth to fingerprint you.

Don't worry about it. Many of us are in the same boat. I actually think reddit doesn't want human users anymore. They want to be a bot-only outfit.

there is a way, but likely it will cost money, as you need a new device, browser, and IP. its only worth it if your advertising on reddit(that reddit doesnt take a cut), maybe OF people, but people want to advert or direct to thier own business will have hordes of accounts and a way to "look like normal users" with niche proxies and anti-detection browsers.

Those are easy. Use Firefox with tracking ptotection set to strict, Jshelter set to little lies on canvas and audio, time precision protection set to high, and use mobile data.

That's what I don't understand: why go so much out of your way to spite an user just because they broke some rule?

At the rate they are going they'll end up with no one left except for bots.
