As long as the bot isn't sensitive and glitchy like Reddi bots. The term "Plex" flags your account for piracy or some stupid shit.
I can see how that would be perPlexing
Oh, that must be why my new accounts keep getting shadow-banned.
Or unless your account is "connected" I got one of those messages. I have account that's been there for over 10/yrs. So I created a 2nd account under a different email address and after 2/yrs they wanted to ban it for something that didn't make sense.
Maybe connected by device. But my first account they thought I was trying to evade ban so they suspended that account for 7 days. Those mods need to fix their auto mods or something. But eventually Lemmy will be the big thing.
Long live the fediverse.
I made sure they're unconnected by IP address, cookies, email, etc.
You underestimated the average person's tolerance to be dominated. They'll stay on Reddit and Twitter and Facebook.
Yea I had two different email addresses, just not ip addresses and cookies. Oh well. On to Lemmy and/or Kbin.
If you're saying reddit temp banned you, you made a new account, and then you made a new account and that was instantly banned... yeah, I had 7 accounts all logged into an app, one was banned, therefore all 7 were banned, and when I removed them and cleared app cache and disconnected from wifi (so I had a mobile IP) that account was instantly banned as well. So I guess even 3rd party apps send (sent lol) some unique identifier to reddit.
Idk, the fact they considered accounts "connected" is stupid. The mods are just abusing their power and censoring people.
I'm talking about reddit admin automated account processes. Not subreddit bots/mods.
Oops ok.
