    It’s hard to make a new account and not get flagged instantly.

    You have to change ip address. Email, even the device you use

    I can’t be bothered anymore so now I just don’t use reddit

        You needing an entirely new device, like a completely different computer, just takes a whole minute?

        Do you just have spare PC’s laying around your house?

          By new device you mean useragent, cookies and browser fingerprint? I got plenty of those. Or do you think reddit can somehow identify your actual device?

          Reddit still fingerprints your device.

          I’m permabanned on reddit. I have a VPN that changes my IP every day or so. If I make a new account on my phone or pc it’s banned within a few hours.

          Until I get a new phone or pc I can’t make an account. It knows the device, not just the IP.
