Or do I have to make a community to do this? Because I don't want to be banned from a bunch of communities for promoting my articles that I wrote.

This is actually a feature in Reddit for those unaware.

No. This is actually a Reddit feature 1000001332 See the first entry for where to post. And yes, this is a throwaway account.

I'm aware of the feature, it's been around since before I left. I'm saying that it looks functionally like they coded it to be nothing more than a subreddit named for you, in which you're the only one allowed to post. They may have put some sort of flashy nonsense over the top of it, but that's pretty much what it is.
