No warning, not even a “Don’t do it again email” - I had a work account, that was logged in on my works laptop, I made a comment critical of Netanyahu, and the Gaza genocide, which got that account banned from /pics. This was months ago, then I made a comment on pics, on my main account. That’s it, gone, banned.
I even have another spare account, from 2008, logged in to that, that’s banned too. FFS!
No luck on appeals, so I guess no more reddit, ever again. Anyone managed to get around this?
That sucks!!!
I’m shadowbanned and annoyed because I’m about to lose my 789 day streak for 1000.
At least I can fully commit to Lemmy/piefed
I got around it, make a new windows/OS login, VPN and you can get around the ban. Exact same thing happened to me 4 accounts, accidentally posted on one of my other accounts that was banned in the sub and they hit me with ban evasion.
Is not an IP ban as far as I can tell, they are using something to get a digital finger print of you current login/browser/etc. I suspect Pixel but can’t confirm. But I flip the VPN to another city prior to logging in on the new account and switch it back when I log off reddit to my main OS account just in case.
Its been about 2 weeks and the new account is running fine, although I don’t bother to use it and stick to Lemmy now…
List of things I was banned for:
Video of a quadcopter that a human could fly in:
- can’t wait for the first influencer to die in one of these
Some moronic question regarding bicycle repair:
- just hop on the bike and gather up some speed then place a stick through your spokes.
Saying that ‘anyone who features prominently in the Epstein files deserves the rope’.
