No warning, not even a "Don't do it again email" - I had a work account, that was logged in on my works laptop, I made a comment critical of Netanyahu, and the Gaza genocide, which got that account banned from /pics. This was months ago, then I made a comment on pics, on my main account. That's it, gone, banned.

I even have another spare account, from 2008, logged in to that, that's banned too. FFS!

No luck on appeals, so I guess no more reddit, ever again. Anyone managed to get around this?

But could it be rotating external addresses literally every day or two?

Like I said, I only make it a day or two with some of these accounts before I say something I typically know will get me banned and I just don't care. Then I'm back in with my new account. It's fully functional. I check to make sure I'm not shadowbanned. I get activity on my posts. And those accounts can be good for months.

I just don't see how Reddit can be IP banning if I'm able to do this.

Yes. It’s Port Address Translation with a pool of external IPv4 addresses
