Btw the german text reads “This account has been suspended”, with buttons to log in and sign up
I guess their bot detection must have figured out that you’re a human.
Reddit detects if your previous account was banned and then bans your new account as well.
That’s the problem - I’ve never had any banned accounts on Reddit before
some innocent accts were getting caught in the ban wave this month. did you ever get a comment removed automatically?

this time around at least within february, any sort of ban they detect, even a temp one will trigger thier filters, to ban all your accts with no reason at all, the filters are so sensitive it happens to innocent accounts to. they usually ban the new account that commented on a banned sub before, but this time was different, they just went looking for old accounts too.
This happened to me twice, but it was twitter (long before Musk took over). They held my account hostage in exchange to my phone number - which I refused to give them.
Despite the ban, their system still sent me their annoying newsletter. It also took me 3 support tickets to get my account deleted and stop receiv8ng emails.

This has happened to me on several apps when I signed up while using a (paid) VPN
reddit has been banning people with VPN for a while, apparently even people with PROXIES are having problems too(which is the next step after vpn got banned by reddit) proxies were originally used to evade ip IDING by reddit, much better than vpn, but even reddit is catching up those methods.
Reddit held my account hostage too. I wasn’t allowed back in until providing an email. They claimed ‘suspicious activity’ or something like that and framed it all as a service to me. I gave them an unused address that I set up for a community group years ago. The reddit account in question was over a decade old.
did it ever get a perma-ban message? mins was too, but it also have the perma ban message(i had other accts banned at the same time) but this was just wanted to change the password.
Yep, got banned for telling nazis to go fuck themselves. If I’m banned for that, I don’t need to visit Reddit anymore. It’s trash now.
I guess you could call Reddit the nazi supporters then
I mean, there was a reason. The question is if it was a good reason. And, you know, it’s reddit, sooooo
I find that hard to believe.
nope its actually happening, on another site, some were banning anywhere from a few minutes to few hours after creation, and they have banning “bots” for the last month aggressively,
