most of them wouldve been banned already, or become shadowban, if they suddenly became active. reddit now sees inactive accounts and new accounts as potential botting.
to spread out , risk mitigation of reddits tendancies to ban people. i had accounts for certain niches that doesnt want to interact more “controversial” subs. unfortunately this year around reddit filters targeted all accounts at once as potential spam, ban evasion.
Lots of mods will dig through your history and ban based on activity in other subs. Having themed accounts helps segment your content. I had separate accounts for hobbies, anything political, and local stuff. I don’t want those things linked.
I also deleted accounts every so often to start fresh. Except for the hobby one, that was neutral enough that I let it stay until I completely left Reddit.
Change every so and on to maintain some sense of privacy, it won’t work against reddit or th US gov, but at least may avoi that people look too far in my comment history, then I had to deal with a ban… for telling people to move to lemmy
I don’t even remember all the reddit account I had in the previous 5 years
Off to El Salvador with you!

Why did you have more than 1?
Posting.
Porn.
Weird porn.
Furry porn.
Backing myself up in arguments.
I basically made a new throw away account everytime I needed to post in some stupid support forum that only existed on reddit.
Unfortunately, many companies think reddit is a valid place for support forums these days. I try to avoid any such companies now.
I’ll take open and indexable Reddit support forums over walled off Discord servers any day.
same here, i used throwawayacc for asking a specific question in my “locations sub”
Had me in the first half lmao

One for serious posts that you don’t mind being linked back to you professionally, and one for shitting all over trump.
See ya in five years if there is much left to see 👍
accounts for political.news subs have a tendancies to be banned for one reason or another more than other accounts,.
Shitting over Trump is not serious? Hmmm!
