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.
Reddit got scraped for LLM data and they know they missed out on money. I think that’s a huge reason they removed the API two years ago.
Oh for sure. They’re getting money from Google for it and that’s just what the public knows about.
