Why is Reddit in the equation, because the Telegram channels also get banned ? Cause if not, why not just stick to Telegram

Reddit is used as a directory. It has the advantages in discoverability and being able to automate account creation without needing an email address or phone number.

The other thing you'll commonly see on both of these platforms is material being stolen from other social media platforms and then re-hosted to reddit or TikTok with sexualised descriptions. Reddit for example will often say it's fine as long they don't explicitly mention that the images are not of the poster.
