    I am sorry, but I believe it’s impossible For years, they don’t respond, and I still have no idea why and when I got shadow-banned myself:
    - https://lemmy.world/comment/21676673

    It might be their automation system at the start of them trying “AI” and I got into a list by a mistake, yet no one ever cared or will care.
    There were at least ~340 Euro I invested into the account at Reddit giving awards mostly, and a few NFT avatars, and for what?
    I lost hope in Reddit, and won’t consider their support or anything serious from that point, unfortunately…

      so do you advice for forums other than reddit? lemmy seems to be too small compared to reddit,i seen only tech and politics since i made the account and scrolled a little.

        I’ve found lots of similar groups but the engagement is lower so you have to search for them. And, be an engager too!

    Well when I got permanently banned for calling someone regarded, I waited over 8 months before I created a new account with a software that supposedly emulates a different PC hardware and Linux OS and I used that software for 2 weeks to get some random cookies and stuff to make sure reddit doesn’t think I’m a bot, I even restarted my modem to get a completely different IP address (and I didn’t use any VPN as it detects that if you do and you are automatically flagged).

    Then I created a new account and barely used it to do anything, only liked and commented on a few generic posts to ensure it doesn’t track my subreddit to my old account and still I got banned on the 3rd day for ban evasion.

    I don’t know what the fuck they use to detect that, but holy shit, that is incredibly good, atleast against a basic ban evader like me.

    Opinion: If a service doesn’t want you, stop using it and look for alternatives. Maybe it is for your own good.

    The EFF has an informative page about tracking and fingerprinting: https://firstpartysimulator.net/

    Right now you are like Obelix. You need to find out how Reddit sees through your disguise and become more skillful.
