Holy hell Reddit is invasive. Got banned a few years ago. Went to make a new account and within a day it was banned. New email, new computer… how the hell do they have way too much information on you? It’s actually kinda scary how insidious those fuckers are.

    The answer is Google.

    Reddit has the Google login integration and advertiser id.

    Your Gmail account and Google advertising id has de-anonymized you

      So that’s why when I created a new account it still banned me.

      Thank you for actually answering the question. The rest of these kids sound like they belong on Reddit.

        There aren’t any Reditors around here. It’s the Fediverse.

        No more inane infinite cascading reply chains any more thankfully.

          Yeah, it’s the “other people” at fault here, and not the OP telling people to kill themselves because he didn’t like their reply

            Well I’m not monitoring their behaviour either, I just wish people could have a little more empathy.

            Times are tough for everyone.

            Often people giving you a hard time are HAVING a hard time. It’s not an excuse, it’s just unfortunate
