    Deleting your posts was a waste of time. Chances are likely that it is archived on their end.

    Reddit has been paying close attention to behavior patterns of banned users and users they wouldn’t want on their platform. It’s likely they’ve gotten your posting imprint and just give you the comfort of thinking you’ve deleted your posts.

      deleting your account also wont stop them from finding your new accounts, they mostly archived that as well. they look at browser fingerprinting, device, device components, time zone discrepancy, browser size and VERSION, resolution,etc. if you use any paid service/trial service that can spoof any of these above and they arnt the correct versions, they can detect that.

      and then theres the warming up period with new accounts(like not posting, reporting, or upvoting too fast after account creation)

        As far as I know, they use things called Evercookies and it’s been a thing now too. If you have an Evercookie, then it won’t really matter what browser you use or even if you clean the cache and history. You have to deep scrub your system and practically all traces of your browser to even get rid of those.

        And even so, basic networking is a no brainer when they can just flag your IP and it won’t even matter how many times you’ve done that process.

        VPN and Incognito browsing is the way.

          I discovered the other night that I couldn’t even browse Reddit anonymously with my VPN active.

            I don’t know then. I can browse Reddit just fine and I’m not using a VPN. It is interacting with the content and commenting I can’t do because auto-shadowban.

              I can browse when I turn the VPN off. I no longer have an account nor the desire to interact with it’s content any way, but I do like to keep up with a few subreddits that have little to no content here.
