Well when I got permanently banned for calling someone regarded, I waited over 8 months before I created a new account with a software that supposedly emulates a different PC hardware and Linux OS and I used that software for 2 weeks to get some random cookies and stuff to make sure reddit doesn't think I'm a bot, I even restarted my modem to get a completely different IP address (and I didn't use any VPN as it detects that if you do and you are automatically flagged).

Then I created a new account and barely used it to do anything, only liked and commented on a few generic posts to ensure it doesn't track my subreddit to my old account and still I got banned on the 3rd day for ban evasion.

I don't know what the fuck they use to detect that, but holy shit, that is incredibly good, atleast against a basic ban evader like me.

    I am sorry, but I believe it's impossible For years, they don't respond, and I still have no idea why and when I got shadow-banned myself:
    - https://lemmy.world/comment/21676673

    It might be their automation system at the start of them trying "AI" and I got into a list by a mistake, yet no one ever cared or will care.
    There were at least ~340 Euro I invested into the account at Reddit giving awards mostly, and a few NFT avatars, and for what?
    I lost hope in Reddit, and won't consider their support or anything serious from that point, unfortunately...

    I’m not shadowbanned or anything but i downloaded this app because i need something else to help me pass the time and you are correct this is a way smaller platform and with really low activity compared to reddit. So if you are looking for an alternative i unfortunately think you will find this lacking. I don’t know any other alternatives than this one and it’s probably the best option as there isn’t many similar ones. The issues is reddit is so huge and well known around the world that nothing can compare to the high level of activity and users.

    Opinion: If a service doesn't want you, stop using it and look for alternatives. Maybe it is for your own good.

    The EFF has an informative page about tracking and fingerprinting: https://firstpartysimulator.net/

    Right now you are like Obelix. You need to find out how Reddit sees through your disguise and become more skillful.
