Tried that. Didn’t work. I have tried tons of different IPs with different mac addresses and tons of different browsers and even tried signing up entirely in a virtual machine. At best my account will stay up until I start posting and joining subreddits and it can detect who I am based on how I use the site/what I type.
Are you using the same network for those different approaches? If so, it could be your network. That or you have quite a unique online fingerprint. I’d be curious to know what it is they do when blocking someone, that’d make it much easier to work around.
I assumed they are just using some sort of algorithm to detect me based on how I use the website. I notice if I only post in subreddits I’ve never frequented before on topics I’ve never talked about before I can seem to avoid the block for a bit, but the moment I start posting again in my usual subreddits it’s like something picks that up and recognizes it’s me and then boots me.

Changing networks doesn’t work either.
Reddit is not God 🤣
What?
Reddit has many ways to detect evasion, including device ID. After a year, the chances of detection might be even lower.
