So my username on reddit was u/IAmUser1234567 I had 17k+ Karma, i didn’t do anything they just banned my account. Now i guess they have created a digital fingerprint or marked my ip address, because if i create a new account it gets banned almost instantly.
I am loving lemmy(using Voyager on my android phone) so much. Reddit anyways now just contains shity cringe content, it is becoming like insta, I am happy to join lemmy family :)
they fingerprint your browser(what kind of browser, the version, if you have it minimized or not,etc) other things they look for is components of some of your device, time and date. they eventually will sniff out vpns/PROXIES if doesnt have it in thier database already. other specific things like, are using a google email(they seem to trust those more) or those temp emails. allegedly brave hid your fingerprinting, thats why some reported they dint get banned for a while.
