Testing Reddit's New Filters Together.

the IP thing hunter spirit mentioned is real. i run aged accounts and even 5 year old ones get shadowed if the IP has history. reddit links by IP way harder than people think. rotating residential proxies is basically required now, and letting accounts lurk and upvote for a week before commenting keeps the behavior filter happy.

do you know some good rotational residential proxy ?

The AI SPAM filter flagged accounts randomly. Reddit does not want smart accounts that know how to create interesting content. They want stupid accounts come and click the Ads.

that is thier intention now, that they got rid of so many irl users last year, and they are slowly rolling out the forced login popup to get people to sign into an account, so thier data can be scraped for AI.

Has anyone noticed their account getting banned after using SMM panels to upvote comments?

I've tried white niche and seems to be fine. No comment was deleted or anything.

That's true, but it's way cheaper to find a solution than paying $$$ for a simple post.

Yep. I think you can use the r/WhatIsMyCQS to see your score on reddit. But the problem is even with high score the comment is removed immediately.

What’s white niche?

Honestly, I’ll never understand people who say we could potentially be “100% cooked.”

To me, this is just a rough period where everyone has to adapt and use the best possible methods.

If you look at Reddit, real users with genuinely high-quality accounts and normal activity are still able to mention, recommend, or occasionally promote products. Reddit is obviously never going to ban every user who recommends a product. So what exactly would make us “completely cooked”?

From my testing, the biggest change is that commenting with accounts that don’t have a strong CGS seems much harder now, especially in communities that are commonly targeted for promotion.

That’s also why I think buying promotional comments is basically dead. Most sellers have already used those accounts for too much promotional activity, so the accounts themselves have very little trust left.

The way forward seems to be building genuinely niche accounts with real activity, history, and authority inside specific communities. Account age alone doesn’t seem nearly as important anymore.

I have quite a sophisticated operation (web, mobile, jailbroken iPhones, 5G Verizon proxies, self-upgrading reddit app coherence, ML on survival vs bans, full TLS proxy for coherence, running account linking modeling+coherence modeling)

I have ~200 accounts alive at any given time. My 5-day survival rate for first comment is about 5% on web. Mobile I'm close to operational, just ironing out final production kinks.

- Big/generic subreddits = higher ban probability
- Mentioning any brand = higher ban probability
- A greater number of spaced-out account setup events = lower ban probability
- Clustered setup events = higher ban probability

My data is slow to accumulate. I have occasional survivors. As they accumulate, and the bandit assigns accounts to exploring the missing vector space, evidence will accumulate and reddit's algorithm will show through. My current theory: topic interest. Reddit is serving a feed of posts, and reddit predicts our probability of clicking into each thread. The more humanly we behave (digging into subreddits within our topical interest area) the more reddit believes we are human. Especially with video dwell time; scrolling through videos is being used as evidence of topic interest. It's one big graph with embeddings. The algorithm serves us content, and measures us against our own interests.

Cloud phones with a proxy.

In my opinion, the setup isn't too important as long as you have a decent proxy and no fingerprint leaks. I say this because I know people in the OF community running antidetect browers, jailbroken ios, cloud phones, etc but we are all facing the same issue since end of June.

It seems like it's all about account activity if the account is warmed up.

can i join your team i run reddit accounts too using bitbrowser and webshare proxy

Lately it feels like almost everyone doing any kind of promotion on Reddit is running into the same problems: comments getting silently removed, posts disappearing, and accounts getting shadow banned. Why don't we work together and use this thread to test different methods? Whenever someone tries something new, just post an update on whether it worked, the comment was removed, or the account got shadow banned. This way we can avoid wasting time repeating methods that no longer work. I'll start today with a new test and update this thread with the results. Recently I noticed that mentioning my brand name in a comment, even without a link, gets the comment removed and eventually leads to a shadow ban.

My next test is different. I have old comments on aged accounts that already mention my brand. Instead of mentioning it again, I'll naturally engage in discussions and share a link to one of those old comments so anyone interested can find the brand there. I think it can work since it's an internal link and not external. The conversion rate will probably be lower, but if it avoids Reddit's filters, it might be worth it.

If you're interested, let's work on this together and share our findings.

havent got shadowbanned with aged accs if i warm them proper for 3-4 weeks first. only thing is gotta use same ip, never switch it mid warmup or thats when reddit flags it. also avoid brand keywords during warmup, stick to organic comments
