As soon as I make an account and try to post a comment or something. I get "server error" which is basically a ban.
How do some people avoid getting banned on reddit?
Like right now?
- Not engaging in subreddits criticizing the current US government and politicians. This includes talking about any violence against groups and individuals, even in the passive, and even things like quashing bugs or shooting varmints.
- Not using English.
- Lurking only.
- Discuss only hobbies. No discussion of politics nor controversial subjects inimical to the interests of Reddit the corporation and its shareholders.
Besides the unexpected bans, there are also some heavy-handed takeovers of some subreddits that are even remotely political in nature, as original mods are allegedly kicked out and replaced with freshly-made accounts assigned as new mods. That some accounts are said to even harassed with multiple reportages coming from controlled accounts.
So your IP is banned? Idk I need to stop talking about Christianity or my account is going to get perma'd soon.
Fuck Reddit. Only time I even care about it anymore is if I google search a tech issue and reddit comes up in the results. It’s a cesspool of AI accounts and trolls for most things these days.
From what I've gathered you get banned if you use a VPN. If not immediately, eventually.
If there are certain niche subreddits which you can't live without, download an RSS reader. They still work with Reddit, for now. They won't let you post or otherwise interact, but you shouldn't do that anyway.
I have a separate account just for reading with api for sync, I sometimes want to post though, but they Keep banning the accounts.
The only way to not get banned is to never, ever post.
A lot of subs gave "minimum karma limit". It is supposed to stop spam accounts but it just stops new people from commenting/posting.
It doesn't stop you from posting only, I created an account and tried to post a comment. At first the comment got posted, then it got removed and I got a server error. I checked and it seems the account was banned.
You might be IP banned then.
My current reddit account is my 12th reddit account so far aging around 1 month now. Previous 11 accounts were shadow banned even without me doing any illegal, spamming activity., That's why I deleted them.
I haven't made a comment with my current one. Just upvoting 1 post per day to maintain the streak.
Also I've joined karma farming subs to first gather comment karma then post karma..
This time, I'm very cautious. I hope I don't get shadow banned.
I had maybe 8 reddit accounts, the whole time i used reddit. The first onle lasted like 10 years or so. Then after the first ban i made a new one every other week.
At that point why bother?
I need to gather information about some things I'm interested in. You can call it as a self-research.
I see all these youtubers that literally dissecting the whole internet for information, source, knowledge, course and they make things with these from scratch without having no prior and proper knowledge from the start.
Watching these kinds of videos made me to come to 2 conclusions.
Either I really don't know how to use the internet, or I'm too lazy to explore it.
Then I decided to take matters into my own hands. Like the "F*ck around and find out" method. I began surfing articles, google doxxing, forums, reddit, quora, LLMs to get an overall average understanding. Then I stopped at few points, marking them as permanent and important for using the internet.
Reddit was one of them. The real amount of FAFO people in reddit is very low, but at least their advices, shared experiences are legit. But you know, not everybody has the same question.
If I find a subreddit important for my research, there are very few, close to none amount of questions that match my thirst. And as a new user, I just couldn't post or comment.
So what did I had to do? I needed to farm karma. I'm no girl so I couldn't karma-bait using my pu$$y, I started with 1 or 2 comments per day, accumulating 50+ comment karma then I headed to make my first post.
The post usually works well. It gains me some karma. I farm more. Get 100+ post karma. After that, for some reason, I get shadow banned.
I appealed, reddit responded with, "Unfortunately, we cannot....."
This cycle has been happening since the last 11 account for over 3 years.
…just ditch reddit
Getrid of Reddit.
Do leave a 1 star rating on the app.
