I’m banned from Reddit so I’m here and this is my only social media left
I'm banned too. I did try to create a new account but subreddits have invisible minimum karma thresholds that make it difficult to use as a new user.
any of the large subs will always have a stricter filter, as they have the most traffic. usually some niche subs, and maybe one that is almost never moderated or barely moderated. if they already shadowbanned you, it wouldnt matter anyways.
i know a couple of small subs that are not moderated or barely. i heard ban evaders will try to use these to warm up the account.
You can always just create another account by the way. It takes a moment to get back up and running because of shadow bans, but it is possible
I was not successful in my attempts. No matter what privacy measures, whether I let the account sit and I just lurked and upvoted before trying to subscribe/post/etc, got suspended almost immediately several times before I gave up.
once reddit shadowbans you , theres almost no way to use a new account, because they can just connect your new account to your old account via the IP adresss, browser fingerprints, and your device components. they looking for things like browser size, time zone/location setting and correct version of browser. beyond that they will compare similarities between posting and spamming habits.
only way is to have a new device: mobile, new ip, different browser, or using more expensive things like proxies, and anti-detect browsers.
