Is it safe to use the same browser for multiple Reddit accounts if I’m switching IPs and clearing cookies each time?
Can I reuse the same browser for different Reddit accounts?

same browser = same fingerprint. use antidetect like hidemyacc, gologin or whatever works for you. just don’t run everything raw.

This approach is partially safe, but also carries significant risks. Switching IPs and clearing cookies can reduce detection rates, but it does not completely protect against Reddit's advanced tracking (e.g. browser fingerprinting, behavioral analysis). By practicing caution - using unique IPs, thoroughly cleaning your browser, and maintaining natural behavior - you can reduce your risk of being banned to 20% to 40% for 1-3 months. However, some careless behavior (e.g. reusing IPs, switching accounts quickly) can result in a ban within a few days, especially for spammy activity like survey links.

The browser + screen resolution and other factors are part of the fingerprint
So, they probably know it's you by clustering your activity in certain subs

You should be using anti-detect browsers when managing multiple accounts on the same device, otherwise you’re risking getting your WebRTC/fingerprint leaked and the account shadowbanned.
Also make sure you’re using clean proxies, many of which are sold tend to be already abused IPs.

It may not be safe to use the same browser for multiple Reddit accounts even if you are switching IPs and clearing cookies each time. Reddit may still be able to track your activity through other methods. It is recommended to use different browsers or incognito mode for each account to ensure your accounts remain secure.

How about using the same browser but with different profiles, each signed into different gmail accounts and assigned different proxies?

Reddit allow you to have multiple accounts. In theory, your idea would be accepted by Reddit.
But here's the catch: If they will ban 1 account, all the others will drop like flies.
They can ban for a lot of reasons:
- Upvote your own posts/comments.
- Spam.
- No reason (yes, they have the ingeniosity to ban genuine accounts out of the moon).
So, no: Don't do that.

You could for smaller amount of accounts, for larger amounts you will need to modify your browser settings quite a bit. But that is essentially making your own mini anti detect browser though.
So if you don't want to waste time with that easiest is to just buy some of the already available anti detect browsers.

Yes, it's generally safe if you switch IPs and clear cookies each time, but Reddit may still detect browser fingerprints.

As long as your proxy is good and you clean your cookies/cache then you can use the same browser.

You can use multiple Firefox Portable or Chromium browsers, but don't use the same instance all the time.

You need an anti detect browser, most have free plans so you can use multiple different free plans for free profiles

Technically yes but only if you change ip and nuke cookies each time, however, that's not as secure and your device may leak data doing this way. You can still be tied together with browser fingerprinting though. Cookies + ip changes = good
