A few months ago I was unnecessarily banned on my reddit account first, but then even if I use different computers and a different Internet, it somehow realizes that it’s me and bans me. When I open my account, there is no problem, but as soon as I write something, it is banned.

    I managed to get round a permaban by:

    • Getting mullvad VPN
    • installing mullvad browser.
    • setting it up such that this browser is the only thing that routes through mullvad (everything else on my system goes through Nord). For regular browsing I use Firefox and Nord.
    • creating a free proton mail account within this browser (unfortunately I had to verify it with a real email :( but proton do say it’s just for verification)
    • sign up to Reddit.
    • all I use mullvad for is this browser and my IPTV streams all paid for with bitcoin

      I’ll try, thank u, but it’s very interesting that they recognize me even on a different device.

        Google literally spits out a full explanation of how this works if you bother to ask it.
