Okay, so being on this site, I imagine that you have seen a computer at least on TV - most likely you know the answer. If you were Reddit, how would you try to recognize that an unwanted user is trying to register? Email address, IP address, browser fingerprint. 1. Use a brand new email address. 2. Use an IP to visit reddit that you haven't used yet. If you don't have such an IP, then it's time to go and get a new mobile subscription. Never use other IP to visit reddit from that account - it shouldn't be associated with any of the previously flagged addresses. You switch to wifi accidentally while being logged in, and that account is done. Also, the IP that you used to register is tainted too at the same time. 3. Use Firefox, just to be sure. Of course there can other factors too, but especially the first two are the bare minimum. Happy trolling.

I am sure you have not read more than the title ;-) 1. Done - so far - 12 new attempts, 12 new emails: 4 on gmail, 4 on protonmail, 2 on infomaniak and 2 on Tuta 2. Done - 12 diff exit points, in 12 diff countries, associated with each diff email (these also vary at times, by the intrinsic way the VPN picks dynamically servers in their exit points data centers). Used two diff VPN solutions: PIA and Mullvad (if that matters at all) 3. FF, Chrome, Brave, Safari (all on macos), Kiwi, Samsung Internet, Hermit and RIF (on Android) => changed the agent on a few, to match uniqueness of new email and new IP Thank you!

  Of course I read it. And unless you are posting pictures about yourself on reddit announcing that you are a ban evader, you are making mistakes that reveal your identity - you share one of your known IPs, or you share some of your registration details between the accounts. Or alternatively reddit admins are psychics, in which case you should give up (or train to be a better psychic)
