    Exactly. I’ve been there. Though I’m surprised creating account from mobile got him perma banned. I’ve had a reddit account that’s actively evading a ban, is now few years old, and yet haven’t faced a re-ban.

      I had accidentally posted to a sub I was banned from from an alt and now I cannot create a new account anymore. They catch it before I can even read a post.

        Reddit’s ban hammer is a powerful one. I was only able to create an account when I got a new phone. And that too I had to use a new email address, and never ever log into my laptop with this same account, unless I’ve switched to Linux.

        If you can live with the fact you have to use a different OS on your pc if you want to login, or if you are okay with waiting till you buy a new phone, then you can evade reddit ban. Then again, never log into your old accounts, especially right now when ban is fresh.

        Look, honestly, I don’t think it’s worth it. Especially with the current state of reddit. I myself barely log into reddit these days. And if all you do is lurk, you can already do it.
