I’ve been permabanned from Reddit for harassment. I was fucking with some guys that liked anime in a non anime subreddit, I simply called them Chinese cartoons and they got mad, bigly. Anyways I trolled too much using that account so apparently they figured it was better to cut me off the website entirely. I would like to use Reddit still, but every account gets banned as soon as I make it. It tells me I can appeal but I can’t actually because that was more than a year ago.

If I delete that account and all associated accounts, and make new account not associated with them (new email), will it get banned too? I know reddit bans are not just IP bans but also use device ID and all that shit. Will I have to buy a new computer exclusively for Reddit? Or does my device becomes unflagged the moment I delete the banned account?

I need help with this shit. I like lemmy but there’s just not enough people here.

You should use archive.org or archive.today links.

The best way to influence the Domain Authority metric is to improve your site’s overall SEO health, with a particular focus on the quality and quantity of external links pointing to your site.

You can use the Wayback machine addon to easily get archived links https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/wayback-machine_new/.

And a bookmarklet for archive.today:

javascript:void(open('https://archive.today/?run=1&url='+encodeURIComponent(document.location)))

FYI, if you’re worried about archive.today going down and references being lost, you can manually leave in the original URL by adding https://archive.ph/o/ in front of any URL, after you archive it. IE: https://archive.ph/o/https://sh.itjust.works/post/26060585 will redirect to the archived page, if it exists.

Stumbled on this while researching tablet PCs and clicking on a Reddit "post" from Google results. I take no pride in any part of that sentence.

Revanced & being a mod doesn't seem to matter anymore.

I can still view the front page but no comments, profile, individual subreddits, etcetera now.

This is the same for me on both Sync and Boost.

Surely, I can't be the only one.

Combined with their recent shenanigans with old.reddit.com I'm finally feeling more ready to just let it go finally because there is no freaking way I'm going to use new or their crummy ad_riddled app.

Recently on Reddit there are memes after memes on election. Specifically, rather pro-Israel "No vote for Biden is vote for Trump!" If you open, you see a bunch of same-minded people complaining about anti-Bibi protestors.

It's so everywhere I can't see Reddit without seeing such posts.

I can like threadiverse better just for this. I don't have to see the same tiring meme everywhere thanks to having no political campaigning and no forced promotion of posts into my feed.

It now redirects you to the new site login page. There's no way to sign up with out an email anymore(?) It was only possible on the old site.

this user seems to be a mix of a chatgpt bot and a real person. Notice how soo many of their posts are these long overly formal\affectionate replies with a link to specific products. The products are amazon links (probably referal links) and all the amazon links are hidden behind a redirect by using tastechocolate.co.uk with a specific link page per product so they don't get hidden by the auto mod. I'm guessing tastechocolate.co.uk is owned by the bot farm\user? A lot of the links are also to zoopy.com via zoopy.link which are probably also owned by the bot farm\user to generate ad revenue and affiliate\referral money.

So, I deleted everything I'd posted to Reddit almost a year ago now and have been over here in federated space since.

But I do occasionally read threads over there when they are posted over here, just to see what a larger number of commenters are saying on specific topics (or just to remind myself on how disturbing a lot of the Reddit community has gotten over time).

Anyways, to the point. I saw this thread on /r/news had been removed for violating the politics rule: https://www.reddit.com/r/news/comments/1c7fhna/us_stops_un_from_recognizing_a_palestinian_state/

I decided to send the following message to the /r/news mod team with the Message the Mods button:

"Why was this thread labeled as politics and removed? Thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/news/comments/1c7fhna/us_stops_un_from_recognizing_a_palestinian_state/

Meanwhile, there are multiple threads about Trump, threads about Palestinian protests, and a thread about Florida allowing chaplains in schools.

What exactly is the definition of politics that the mod team is using to claim the former is disallowed due to politics, but not many of the other front page political topic threads?

For that matter, why does a US action in the UN count as overly political in the first place?"

Not sure what I expected, but then a few minutes ago:

"You have been temporarily muted from r/news. You will not be able to message the moderators of r/news for 28 days."

So yeah. Was my message out of line? Aggressive in some manner? I wasn't trying to troll or anything like that.

Ahead of its IPO, Reddit announced a set of tools for businesses that want to be more active on the platform — including the ability to see which subreddits are mentioning a brand. For businesses, Reddit says it’s a way to “establish and grow a meaningful organic presence on Reddit.” In other words: the brands are coming.

Reddit Inc.'s stock-trading enthusiasts made it a household name by backing companies that Wall Street wouldn't. For Reddit's own initial public offering, a group of them are about to flip the script.

In the days after the social-media company filed for an IPO, thousands of members of the WallStreetBets forum — which boasts around 15 million users and helped popularize meme stocks like GameStop Corp. — voted to boost a forum post about shorting the company, a sharp reversal of their typically bullish ways. Their avowed reasons varied from the company's lack of profitability to competitive concerns, and mostly centered on spite.

"I didn’t notice a single new or low-post-count forum"

"There Appears to Be No Benefit if a Forum is Hosted on a Subdomain or Which Software It Uses"

The author lists many reasons why reddit should not be at the top of search results. I listed even more reasons here: Reddit is dangerous. The admins are out of control. Humanity needs a viable alternative.
