So I deleted my 5yo Reddit account and migrate to Fediverse, but then I decided to recreate a new Reddit account just to follow some communities that are only popular there.

I’ve been trying to create a few accounts and I’m shadow banned in all of them.

I’ve tried two factor authentication, phone number and verify e-mail, it doesn’t matter, Reddit keeps shadow banning my account.

Every time I comment somewhere my comment isn’t showed, only for me, I open it in a private tab then I don’t see the comment. All my posts says “Removed by Reddit filters” no matter what I write on it, tried posting several times.

They’re making it impossible for legit new users to interact there.

    Considering that reddit is being swarmed by AI bots, I really doubt how hard they are pushing against them. Probably more like that they are inconviencing real humans with the excuse that they are doing it to prevent bots.

      Bingo. Bots outnumber humans on Reddit at this point, which in turn artificially inflates their userbase. Big number = good for investors.
