I’m sure some people have seen some of my prior posts. It seems it has become entirely impossible for me to ever use the platform again, regardless of whatever steps I take. I’ve recently resorted to emailing Reddit’s support team and submitting appeals.

Unfortunately, in the past month, I’ve only ever gotten a response from them once, saying that my ban will be staying in place without giving any reason. Is there any way at all I can get into contact with someone? They have no phone number and no email, and when you submit tickets on their website they very very rarely respond.

Despite the fact it’s a wrongful ban, there seems to be zero accountability on Reddit’s side, and they provide no means for the consumers to reach out to anyone and vouch for themselves. Is there any way I can maybe even get close to getting my ban overturned? Hell at this point I’m not even looking for them to unban me, at the bare minimum I’d just even like to know why I even got banned in the first place.

    That’s what I find so bewildering. Like I am on a college campus, and I sign into a new device while using a user agent switcher and get banned instantly. There is absolutely no way they should be able to connect that account to me, so my only assumption is just that if someone signed onto Reddit while being on campus, they are gone and there’s nothing they can do about it. Such a ridiculously wide net to cast while trying to catch and punish the most minor of offenses

      I don’t see how the site is gonna stay afloat with this going on. Soon there won’t be any actual users. They need eyes on the ads to get revenue, if they ban all those eyes, they get nothing. They’re just gonna have bots talking to each other and no actual content. Can’t even sell user data when you barely have any human users left.

        its mostly bots anyways, especial AI bots that post alot of slop posts. half is bots, and half is maybe users. and its not the good bots either, the propaganda bots.
