A subreddit permabanned me for not following the 90/10 rule where only 10% of my content can be self-promotional.

I then tried to get back on the subreddit with another account that was following the rules. I got caught and got temporary ban from Reddit.

I then used another alt account on different subreddits but got caught and am now permabanned from Reddit.

Do you know if there is something like this but for TikTok, IG, YouTube, and Twitter?

I think Reddit is tracking my phone?

I got permabanned from Reddit on my Android Google Pixel phone and whenever I would create a new account it would instantly get banned.I tried reinstalling the app but it still banned my new account. I'm not familiar with App Development so I was curious to see if anyone could explain to me how they are tracking me and if I can do anything to get rid of it.While on the topic of app development,...

Re:Should Reddit allow Startups on it's Platform? on Friday March 31, 2023 @11:03PM (#35396648)
I got permabanned from the subreddit and then I tried a second time on my main account in the hopes of getting a second chance and that got both accounts banned for a few days, then I tried going to some other subreddits and sharing the site on a few other alt accounts and they caught me and I am now permabanned from Reddit, Lol. I'm pretty sure they have my IP and stuff on a blacklist at this point.

Should Reddit allow Startups on it's Platform?

Creating an account dedicated to a startup will get the startup banned from Reddit. I know this because I've tried. I didn't realize this was a rule and tried sharing my startup (RentZed) with InternetIsBeautiful Subreddit. It is a website where users can post and view rent prices, like a Glassdoor for Rents. The post got a lot of traction with 200k views and 1.5k upvotes within 8 hours and...

Re:Where have all the laid-off tech workers gone? on Friday March 31, 2023 @07:48PM (#35395348)
I have like 2 years of experience as a SE and I didn't get laid off but I quit to try entrepreneurship. Currently, I've built a website where people can look up an address and see what tenants are paying there. The site relies on user submitted data, like a Glassdoor for Rents. Site is called rentzed.com. I'd appreciate if anyone contributed their rent data and/or shared it with people they know. I have years before I run out of money so I'll just try a couple other ideas I have or join a startup to pay my bills if I need to. I think they'd be interested in having someone join them who has tried building a Startup.
