I have had some success with promoting on Reddit the past few months.

What I used to do was warm up the accounts for a day by commenting on niche subreddits I have an actual interest in, and leaving regular comments.

Now my accounts are instantly suspended on the first or second comment everytime.

I use a new mobile IP and incognito mode every time, it was working well for some months, but now it is not.

Anyone else experience this?

We have started experiencing this over the past week as well,my suspicion is that Reddit is gradually relying more and more on recaptcha v3 an potentially getting other information from Google that are linking accounts together regardless of saved cookies or IP address...
 
Reddit is a pain in the ass nowadays. I'm even afraid to post more than 5 times a day with aged accounts

I opened a post myself a week ago and honestly, I'm trying everything without success. It seems that mobile IPs are penalized more than fixed ones. Any suggestions?
Are you saying that Google can read external cookies? Sorry, but that would be illegal. However, a few days ago, someone who I thought was a bit crazy claimed they were doing external warming on Reddit... could there be some sense to all of this?

No, I was thinking Google might be sharing information about linked Gmail accounts with Reddit but I take it back. I think the issue that I was experiencing was that my accounts were gaining post karma too fast. I karma farm on big subreddits a day or two after i made an account and would get the account to 10k post karma and they would ban me... such a waste. I'm just going to take it slower now, accounts are still getting banned but if they are it's mostly because an IP address rotates while the account is active or the proxy somehow gets detected otherwise. Reddit's spam detection is more or less what it was 6 months ago but about 20-30% tighter. You just gotta stick to the basics and acccept the fact that some accounts will get banned no matter how hard you try.

You could be manually reported as well

It hasn't been a day that I've been working on this... something has changed... my bans have increased dramatically, and I never leave more than one comment a day per account... I don't know, maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I've tried all the systems

I think the main issue right now is that our rotating proxies have a low stickiness period, so we have to get tasks like posts or a comments done very quickly. This is causing more issues than it used to because Reddit has increased its dependency on ReCAPTCHA v3, which measures your activity on the site, like mouse movements, scrolling, typing, etc. We can't spend too much time doing these things because the proxy IP might rotate mid-session and that's an immediate death sentence for the account (with rotating residential proxies). I lost 2 high value accounts because of this today.

Morale of the story, they've been relying increasingly more on ReCAPTCHA v3 for the past month or two but this isn't necessarily a bad thing. If you do have the time to just kind of mimic human actions a little bit like scrolling or sending an upvote or moving you mouse around the screen then you're almost guaranteed to not get flagged.
 
I think the situation should improve after Nov. 5. They're working hard on the bots right now

Yep google started enforcing recaptcha v3 fully like from middle of the october.
Though their filters are kinda overzealous due to elections atm, so you need to be extra careful on what you do on the accounts. 100% they will relax them after the elections and hopefully revert them to previous levels (as it was in earlier months).

As for mouse movement and other human like activity, I am concerned that the problem with these is google has billions of "mouse" movement patterns that their captcha v3 was trained on. There is simply no way you can make human enough mouse movement that will truly fool v3. They have been training it since 2018. I am sure it can detect any suspicious variations in movement or delays.

The only hope is that lots of innocent people get labeled as a bot so they lower their recaptcha monitoring criteria or eliminate it fully. Time will tell, though I am 100% sure they made it like this due to elections and to eliminate propaganda bots.

I have the same problem right now like the OP. I am doing everything manually right now, I had 10 accounts active on Dolphin, I use 4 of them on daily basis combining regular activity with spamming, they're all working good for months. The rest 6 accounts are getting replaced as soon as one account is banned. They are relatively newer, all warmed up for a few days. In fact, I marked them with numbers, so accounts 1005, 1014, 1024 and 1027 are still working like a charm. Other accounts are banned in time, the latest account is 1060, but I managed to work with most of them at least for a few days. But lately I had trouble to log in with Dolphin having problems with reddit security. Eventually I managed to log in, but I believe all these accounts were flagged at that moment. Eventually 6-7 accounts were banned after my first regular post, some of them even after a few comments. Then I changed mobile to residential proxies, I also switched to AdsPower. Added 6 new accounts, 1 proxy for each account. I logged in without any problems, I warmed accounts for a few days but all the accounts were banned after the first regular post (no spam, no shit, regular content). The best thing is - those 4 accounts from the beginning are still working normally! So, what's the catch with this? I am using those 4 accounts the same way as others!
P.S.
It might be related to proxies as I am getting specific security errors with different proxy platforms I use and different type of proxies.

I understand, but if you are earning a lot of money from Reddit, then you have to work hard to find a solution.
