News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

It's hard to make a new account and not get flagged instantly.
You have to change ip address. Email, even the device you use
I can't be bothered anymore so now I just don't use reddit
reddit does have an official onion site
Oh no, it might take a whole minute.
I'm not getting a new phone just to make a reddit account
Why can't you just use your old phone?
You needing an entirely new device, like a completely different computer, just takes a whole minute?
Do you just have spare PC's laying around your house?
By new device you mean useragent, cookies and browser fingerprint? I got plenty of those. Or do you think reddit can somehow identify your actual device?
It will take one reboot of my router or one reset of the WAN-interface.
Reddit still fingerprints your device.
I'm permabanned on reddit. I have a VPN that changes my IP every day or so. If I make a new account on my phone or pc it's banned within a few hours.
Until I get a new phone or pc I can't make an account. It knows the device, not just the IP.
Idk what you are doing to make that neccessary (and am too afraid to ask)
I was site banned as well but made a new account a very short time after the ban and have yet to be banned again.
But it makes sense they are fingerprinting your device somehow to prevent ban-evasion.
Only way I could see is only visiting the page within a obfuscated/very private OS (like Tails?) or a browser that fully wipes and obfuscates any connection between hardware and browser.
