I was just interested to see how much had changed since December when I was randomly banned with no reason given and the appeal went unheard.

I was just planning to browse and not log in but it immediately gave me a pop-up notification to create an account.

Curious if it would allow me, I submitted the application and it went through without problem.

I didn’t want to draw too much attention to myself, so I didn’t comment or post for the first month.

Then, I made another mistake. I got invested, again and it didn’t take long before it inevitably became political.

I posted a reply to someone who had clearly been chugging the orange kool-aid. Nothing terrible, just what I thought was objective reality, easily verifiable through past reporting through many credible media outlets.

But, reddit is going to reddit. Somehow objective reality has been classified as hate speech on reddit.

I’m not surprissd. Just a little disappointed.

I appealed, I do not expect a reply.

Previously, I had been on reddit for 10 years without much incident.

This time I lasted only 2 months

      ban evasion, is when either get subreddit ban, or sitewide ban, and create new multiple accounts to post in the same subs you got banned, or if you got shadow or sitewide perman ban. you used a different device and ip to get around that ban.

      at first it wasnt a problem for reddit, if you avoid the subs you got banned, or if arnt a serial ban evader. now they target all your accounts if they can connect you to same person, that havent participate in the sub for a while.

      Someone who has been banned, but they start a new account under a new name. Reddit prohibits that, and will ban you again.
