Reddit can tell when I make an alternate account to get around a bullshit site wide ban but not when a robot is pretending that they took his wife in the divorce?
The thing is that you (probably) made not effort to hide your identity. The people that make the bots, use all of them
For you the process is :They banned one of your accounts. That account last logged in from IP A. Right after that, someone using that IP is making a new account. Probably same person. Banned again
For the bots, at a minimum is: they just banned and account. That account always logs in using a very popular VPN. Their browser is non fingerprintable. We can’t just ban any new accounts created from that VPN. Registration allowed. (Probably show a captcha)
For you the process is :They banned one of your accounts. That account last logged in from IP A. Right after that, someone using that IP is making a new account. Probably same person. Banned again
I’ve waited several weeks and made accounts on different devices on different networks. Still banned.
Make a new account? Maybe. But I don’t really know. I’d try with a paid VPN, and brave browser private window ( some time ago I tested brave, Firefox and chrome for fingerprinting, and brave gave good results out of the box)

Maybe there were cookies from the original account on both devices?
Unbanned? No.

I can get unbanned by using a VPN? I heard those get shadowbanned
If they couldn’t tell, the bots would get banned sometimes.
Okay but that’s worse. You do see how that’s worse right?
