Upvote Luigi content and make jokes about Kanye committing murder/suicide until I got banned for doing that, again
Subscribe only to niche/fan multimedia based subs (plus /r/creepypasta), never read the comments, and limit my usage to the minimum the person forcing me to use it requires.
Kill the enforcer
wonder what went works with my life.
Post about how paedophiles should face stricter punishments (such as life sentences, or what Louisiana does in the US, reversible chemical castration, that way if they’re found not guilty later, they can take drugs that reverse the effect). That’s what got me banned last time.
What I do now, use old.reddit on my computer and keep to the subs I can’t get on Lemmy.

Only ones not related to music, headphones, etc that have survived in my RSS feed over the years, so I would camp there & keep making new accounts to avoid being sniped
Create dumb account with mail alias and install browser I use only to go on reddit.
Will that disguise your identity from them? I was told there are no anonymous accounts on there without some involved opsec. That they can see who you are through like, what was it, “fingerprints” on the modem I think it was, and other stuff?
Plus these persistent cookie things?
If you use this browser and run adblock, then likely, yeah it’ll be enough
The fingerprint comes from your client.
So, if you use a browser, it will give away your operating system and quite some stuff more.
Pretty much every site you visit can do this, learn more about this here:
https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/Persistent cookies can track you over different sites, that check for this cookie.
It’s not like the cookie has a life of its own, but different sites can check for that cookie and then they can report back to a server, so this server knows which sites you’ve accessed.If you’re using a client app, like the official Reddit app, on your smartphone, it will have some permissions requested and that will be the data it has access to.
If it is running always in the background and has access to your location data, it potentially track your real world location.
If it wants to be linked with your Google/Apple account, it (maybe? (probably depends on the range of access requested)) has access to your real name.But else, it can “only” gather data, that will help to identify you again - but this you is only your username.
Although I’m not sure how Reddit currently handles registrations, and if they now demand some real name.But for example with browser fingerprints, they can with some probability identify the device again, but can’t really say who you are - like with a real name.
But every service you visit in the internet, independent of by browser or app, will see your IP - your numerical internet address, with which your devices communicate with any other device in the internet.
So, if you access a homepage, the web server will reply to your device by using your IP address, because that’s where the request came from and else it wouldn’t be able to send you the data you requested - like the data (text, images, code) of the homepage you want to accessThe relation between your real name and the IP is known by your internet service provider (ISP) and for example law enforcement can get access to your real name, when they have your IP, but a typical homepage can’t get to that data.
So they’ll know that you accessed their homepage twice (and maybe some partner Homepages, with which they share this data), but they can’t really say who you are in the real.
For quite some time private IPs were also dynamic. So with every dial-in you’d get a new IP.
By now this isn’t the case anymore with many providers and connection types.
I’m still paying for a (rather) stable IP though, so I can access my server reliably with the same address - but you can also set up a script that updates a domain (like a www/“Internet” address) and you don’t need the IP, just like you can access google.com without knowing the IP of that serverOk, that has gotten a bit off of topic, but I hope, it brought you some more understanding how those things work
If I got your question completely wrong, sorry.
Maybe I can give you better information, when you clarify where I went wrong
If someone sees, that I’m providing wrong or outdated information, please correct me :-)
Jerk off. All its good for.
I would stick to niche and small subreddits. Here is why.
- Reddit has a lot of bots
- Lots of real users are part of reddits contributor program which allows people to get paid from Reddit for their content. Theses users posts will get more visibility than the average lurker.
- Reddit makes money off collecting data and selling it to advertisers. Reddit doesn’t want quality community content and engagement. That is just what they promote to get people in the door. The more Reddit knows about their users, the more they can sell to advertisers. That is why they killed the third party apps for the most part. They are following the Facebook business model.
So basically if you’re commenting on a a trending post that has 500+ comments, you’re probably wasting your time by posting into the abyss. You might have bots and people downvoting your content so they can upvote their own content for more visibility.
Stick to the small subreddits if you’re not trying to make money off Reddit and want a sense of an online community. It’s not worth it to bots and community content creators to waste too much time in those communities.
Much like your Edge question.
Only use it for the bear minimum and Lemmy for everything else.
What’s reddit?
A corporate social media that is in league with the enemies of life on earth.
Log off
Probably get banned again.
Better dead than reddit. At least for politics. I might need to get on just for help on work stuff, trades don’t jack themselves.
But admin chases me off, probably Israel related I can’t keep my mouth shut on there.
