You don't, you wait it out until they stop blocking that IP or email. New account.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 1 points 2 days ago

I did that with alternate location and ip, before the pandemic. Now that I don't, I received so much more bans than beforem

Okay cool. Is that about a year or two for them to stop blocking it?

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

If you create multiple accounts they will shadowban you even. More. The best is to wait a while before creating a new one, use different devices, browsers if possible a different IP ,like a cafe or library. The more they catch, you the easier they can ban your newly created accounts faster

I waited about 6 months and I'm using the same email and devices. It felt like I had a temp shadowban when I was back on but after about 2 months that seems to have gone away.

I avoid getting pulled into fights now by blocking users and subreddits that are obnoxious.

The main reason I want to be back on reddit is someone repeatedly keeps claiming one of my favorite local restaurants has bland food and doesn't use enough salt. In actuality though the restaurant uses a little bit too much salt.

Really want to tell them they are a moron.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.ml 2 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

I bet they have a bad sense of taste. Probably complain at every restaurant.

That's literally one of the things people with bad taste buds do lol. Use tons of salt.
