More and more often, I see users asking for advice on proxies, so now I want to try to clearly explain how they work
As you all know, after the last US elections, Reddit increased its monitoring on many things, unfortunately including proxies
What I write is, of course, for those managing multiple accounts, and I won't dwell on the importance of using an anonymous browser, a clean PC, and patience
1) Static proxy or rotation?
This is the biggest dilemma. Do you have a router at home? Turn it off and on, unplug it, or simply test it once a week, and your IP will change. Do you have a mobile phone? Travel a few kilometers, and your IP will change
So it's unnatural to have static proxies!
2) Localization
Is it important? Yes and no! Or rather, I create an account with a German IP, after an hour I connect with a British IP... how is it possible that in one hour you've gone from Germany to England? If you connect after 3 days, you won't have any issues.
3) How to set up rotating proxies?
All rotating proxies have an option called "sticky," which allows you to use the same proxy for a certain period. If you're doing an action for 5 minutes, set it to 10 minutes for safety. It's also important to set the location targeting for each channel assigned to you, as this helps avoid issues with geolocation.
4) Mobile o Residential ?
Indifferent or rather... If you buy mobile proxies for $1 and residential proxies for $5, residential ones are definitely better. The reason is that, since they cost more, fewer people use them, and therefore there is a lower chance of getting duplicate IPs at the same time on Reddit.
