Anyone Noticing More Reddit Bans Lately?

[ufa12bet]

Is Reddit harder to use this year, or is it just me? I’m seeing more restrictions and quick bans even with clean activity. Would love to hear others’ experiences.

Good question — you’re not alone.even for users who think they follow the rules.

New accounts are banned very quickly; older accounts enjoy higher trust levels, even with fewer posting records.

 

[AmericanFlagMask]

I’ve heard similar complaints.

Feels like Reddit’s algorithm went paranoid after the last update.

Yes, Reddit's enforcement is much stricter now. They aggressively ban for any perceived promotion, use of VPNs, or simply having a new account.

 

[SkadooSkade]

Yeah, been having more problems lately

 

[omi3oh1]

Yeah, Reddit feels stricter this year, accounts get flagged fast even with normal posting.

Yes, Reddit bans have increased in 2025. Even seemingly clean activity can trigger restrictions due to stricter automated enforcement and policy crackdowns.

Tons of bans. They're definitely using AI to analyze user behavior and voting patterns.

At the same time I'm seeing the rise of auto downvote bots that Reddit seems to do nothing about.

Definitely, as well as accounts being restricted. I've noticed alot of bought accounts have their dms restricted quickly

I dont have those problems.

Do most of you even realize Reddit has a team that watches BHW?

I remember when they doxed my profiles on reddit through here after I shared with people the post about gaining karma (the right way)

They probably even buy an account here and there to interlink accounts selleres here have and understand how they are karma farming.

I have 0 problems with my reddit accounts .

People thinking VPNs and all that will save you are all of the people you will see whining . Any technique seen here has been studied and applied into their AI filtering.

Yes, it's a lot harder to warm a Reddit account now. I don't use a bot or software. It's all manual. Yet I'm seeing way more shadowbans as of late than before.

 

[underground-rap]

Yup. My trash account just got banned out of nowhere. I was reading an article and boom, gone.

Accounts that operate naturally and contribute regularly stay very healthy and live long.
If you try to be overly active with the purpose of advertising, doing business, or attempting to grow the account too quickly, they will all fall under suspicion and are very easily restricted.
