Holy hell Reddit is invasive. Got banned a few years ago. Went to make a new account and within a day it was banned. New email, new computer... how the hell do they have way too much information on you? It's actually kinda scary how insidious those fuckers are.

The answer is Google.
Reddit has the Google login integration and advertiser id.
Your Gmail account and Google advertising id has de-anonymized you

That is helpful to know. Probably why I haent been banned as I use reddit on web only, ditched the Android reddit crapplication

So that's why when I created a new account it still banned me.

Thank you for actually answering the question. The rest of these kids sound like they belong on Reddit.

Yeah I’m sorry that some people can’t support the discourse

Yeah, it's the "other people" at fault here, and not the OP telling people to kill themselves because he didn't like their reply

Well I’m not monitoring their behaviour either, I just wish people could have a little more empathy.
Times are tough for everyone.
Often people giving you a hard time are HAVING a hard time. It’s not an excuse, it’s just unfortunate

Not enough people, apparently.

There aren't any Reditors around here. It's the Fediverse.
No more inane infinite cascading reply chains any more thankfully.

🤣🤣 the user pointed something out to you, and your first response was to tell the user to kill themselves?
If you end up getting banned here too, exploding-heads .com might be a more welcoming instance for you

Same house? Your public IP might be logged as a red flag.

Ip bans may not be a thing, but IP reputation absolutely is. Just because you change your public address there is a good chance you will be allocated on in the same block and also get it reallocated back to you in the future.
With CGN being such a big thing in countries exhausting their V4 address space restarting your router may not switch your public address

Banned IP for me. I made a lot of throw-away accounts to answer simple questions and most where shadowbanned (maybe because I was using a VPN).

Different state lol. Reddit is trash
DetectiveKakuna@lemmy.world · 34 pts · 2y
Sounds much more likely that you got banned again for breaking ToS and didn't learn your lesson from the first time lol
ATQ@lemm.ee · 12 pts · 2y
100% this. OP went right back in with the same pudgey 4chan frequenter bullshit that got them banned last time, got banned, and is now over here crying about it. What a loser.

Interestingly I used to mod a subreddit, which shut down when the third party app controversy came to light in protest. I went to see if it ever reopened, and it's no longer even in existence as a Google search result. Just gone.

Reddit is trash. Spez ruined the site over the past two years. He is a complete loser

Nice parroting the bandwagon buzzwords. Got any thoughts of your own inside that single brain cell?

Good lord, are you mad man boy?

And a generic Reddit response. Why am I not surprised
