Reddit is being crazy strict. I'm having to hire people to post for me, as I cant make my own accounts due to them being banned constantly. Any tips?
 
It's obvious, the rise of LLM Agents and bots.
 
reddits not the problem, your setup is. accounts need a solid 2 week warm up minimum and datacenter proxies are dead for reddit now. switched to resi and started warming properly and my ban rate dropped like 90%
 
Yeah, Reddit has gotten pretty annoying lately lol. Feels like new accounts get flagged for almost anything. I’d just stick with one account and take it slow instead of constantly making new ones.
 
Reddit has definitely become stricter, but I wouldn't rely on hiring people to create or manage accounts as a workaround. If accounts are getting banned repeatedly, I'd look at what the accounts are doing and where they're posting.. promotional patterns, repetitive comments, low community participation, or rule violations can all raise flags. For legitimate marketing, I'd focus on fewer accounts, genuine participation, and contributing value before mentioning your business.
 
Reddit is stricter, they care more about environment than before. They basically allowed bots lol. Use real phones, good proxies and go slow. Reddit is still lenient compared to other platforms.

do you buy accounts??
 
If your accounts keep getting banned, I’d first figure out what Reddit is flagging rather than creating more accounts. It could be the content, links, posting frequency, or subreddit rules. New accounts especially need some time to build normal activity and karma before posting heavily. Also worth appealing the bans if you think they were made by mistake.
 
I had a similar problem when I first started using Reddit, and hiring someone to post didn't really solve the underlying issue. A lot of communities have their own rules and moderators can be pretty strict about promotion, especially from newer accounts. I'd spend some time contributing normally and reading each subreddit's rules before posting links — which subs are you having the most trouble with?

Are you using the same IP to post and do you get banned that way?
 
Devices and IPs matter the most now. Also the behavior pattern.

whats your warmup protocol? when do you start upvoting and when do you start commenting?

also requiring login(and them more aggressive logins like with meta accounts) to view parts of the site. they are rolling it slowly so people wont notice til its too late.
 
Reddit has become stricter due to the problems assocated with spammers and automations, In my opinion, the best thing one can do is develop his/her account slowly while engaging in the activity itself.
 
The site’s methods of detecting spam have becme more aggressive now. I would try to establish my account as being legitimate first before spamming because random commen]ting will do more good than posting aggressively.
