    Last time I tried to make an account it was instantly shadow banned. Maybe they don’t like my email address, who knows. It’s kind of a dump over there anyway

      if you go on the shadowban sub, where you are allowed to post there, yea it seems alot of people are getting shadowbanned the instant they create the account, or soon after commenting. they are assuming many people are creating multiple accounts to evade bans. Im in another forum where people are making dozens of accounts, they use it for OF and referall link purpose to earn money, and its been happening to them too, but they have methods to evade reddit , but its a cat and mouse game.

      i had like 5+ accts that were all hit with sitewide ban in early feb, because one of my accounts was temp banned, so it decided to ban all of them, except one, that got shadowbanned now. thier bans made less and less sense, if your not aware reddit went public and is trying to sell the site at some point, hence the accounts apocalypse, also Musk had a hand the recent purges too, he complained on 2 occasions that subs were making him look bad, so reddit started purging accounts criticizing most right wingers.
