So my situation is one of my accounts which I have never had any issues or flags has been shadow banned any ideas what has happened?
This account is an aged account and has been used for just over a month set up through proxy plus anti detect browser I have more accounts with the same set up but they are fine.
Does reddit randomly shadow ban?

It might be that Reddit detected the IP as a proxy. Other cause might be related with your activity, if you break some rule or some users reported you.

I see checking the account now it is suspended but no reason has been provided.
 
Impossible to tell. You can find out what caused the ban, by isolating each variable and testing with another acc: proxy, browser, content posted etc.

That is what I am working on, I was thinking it was the proxy but I have more accounts with the same proxy and browser set up and they are fine so must be content I am thinking.

I can't see your account, so i don't know what happened. But something happened right? They didn't just ban you because you're there being helpful and respecting the rules. You either showcased spammer behavior or you didn't do a good job at masking your fingerprints.

Also: Sites can often detect anti-detect browsers, and normal people don't use it. That alone is a red flag.

Do you have any suggestions on what I can change if an anti-detect browser isn`t reliable? and reddit still hasn`t provided a reason for the suspension.

Use several regular browsers or virtual machines. Good proxies. Maybe it doesn't even have anything to do with browsers. Maybe you're just using previously used proxies. Maybe the proxies you use someone else has used before.

Is there a way to check if a proxy has been used before? what does a virtual machine do that an anti-detect browser doesn`t?

More account with the same proxy? Yes, that's a good way to get banned.

If it's not a dedicated proxy someone else has been abusing it to create accounts. Also some providers lie to you about proxies being dedicated.
