    Ban appeal process is a joke, it’s a private site there’s no standard of evidence required. They don’t overturn bans.

        Was the appeal like a “I didn’t say what you thought I said?” Or was it a "ok I definitely did that but I’m sorry and I super-promise never to do it again if you just give me one more chance? "

        Yes you should stop using reddit. There are far too many Nazis and pedophiles and pedophile Nazis. And that’s just the administration.

        Spend some time here, clean your cookies, after a couple of month, the ban evasion filter shouldn’t trigger anymore.

        But stay here, it’s better

        I mean, they might have your device MAC. You might be able to change that if you’re clever. Lemmy versus elsewhere is up to you.

        Try out a PieFed instance, instances in general, and different front ends. They each feel different. They have different response times between servers and you’ll see some variation in what is in the feeds.

        Overall, this is like the old smaller internet. There are still several fuckwits here, and some shit mods. This place has its issues, but you will get to know the regulars and some eccentrics. You won’t find the same niche post depth as reddit from a few years ago or older, but there is more technical depth than it seems if one asks a good question and has some luck.

        I can completely understand wanting to use reddit again (hope you stick with us too, if you do) but you should know it’s super hard to get past any kind of permanent ban.

        Did you use multiple reddit accounts or just one? the problem for me is that i got IP banned because they detected me logging in to a banned one on the same browser. It is borderline impossible for me to use reddit for commenting & posting again.

          I’ve been IP banned too. I’ve moved houses and changed ISP’s since and have a static ip with new ISP. If I tried signing up again using a new email account, you reckon it’d work?

          I haven’t changed service providers on my mobile phone though.

          I’m not a reddit fan or hater, there’s just niche communities I like being apart of on reddit that I can’t communicate with anymore.

            Same man, same…

            Here are some more facts about reddit IP bans:

            • They also take your device ID/“fingerprint” on the devices you log into banned account with
            • This can be reset by factory resetting a device apparently, but:
            • supposedly, because of data protection, they get rid of this ID anyway, as well as your saved IP address, after a fixed period. Maybe 30 days or 3 months? So if you didnt use reddit in all that time you’d be good to go with a new email address

            You should also avoid quickly joining all your favourite subreddits, because it flags accounts for that. Basically move like a tortoise when you rejoin, and then after a while you can use reddit normally.
