Soooo. I was banned for telling a extreme right wing dickhead that he was an asshole. Yeah I shouldn’t have but whatever. (yes I’ve appealed it and failed)
Now all my sub accounts are also banned.
Is the only way to evade the ban to dodge your online fingerprint? (new phone, new email, new ph number. Etc)
I read it’s just IP based but my flat has 3 others that use reddit daily and they are fine so surely it’s device ID and email linked to device. Etc
Sorry to ask here guys but it’s wracking my brain.
It’s possible that their accounts were grandfathered in and already marked as “different people”. During the next little while (the exact period is unknown, but let’s say 6 months), any new accounts from that IP may get banned, but especially those that are deemed “suspicious”.
We don’t know the exact details because Reddit doesn’t release the details. You might find someone here who can tell you about workarounds, but most likely you’ll get the advice to move on and find something new. Most people are here because they no longer want to use Reddit, and I’d say the vast majority is here because they chose to leave and not because of bans
