Ik, I probably should not be lurking on Reddit anyways, but we are missing a lot of communities here. The only communities I can reliably follow and get quality content is this one and c/linux, c/privacy and some FOSS subs

But if I want something else, reddit is the only alternative. Now, I don't want to give any more of my data and the government of India isn't really known for it's tolerance of free speech they don't like, so, is there a way to create an account on reddit using tor which won't be blocked as soon as it's created.

I feel like giving a email account would make it work (I have seen it remove many hurdles while using reddit without tor) so, is there a email service that reddit doesn't block which will make my reddit account created through tor as good as a normal reddit account.

PS: If I comment is posted then it will be visible on your profile, but it won't be visible to anyone else on reddit. You can't upvote. You are essentially a ghost, this can be very useful saving stuff and all, but without the ability to post, it isn't that helpful. Reddit automatically blocks protonmail and tutanota mails :")

10minutemail.com worked for me the last time.

you will need to post a bit on subs which don't block new accounts with low karma. its an antispam filter.

I'm not sure which ones work now but I remember r/piracy working with zero karma.

it would be ironic if they didn't allow posts from no karma accounts."

Check if your profile was shadowbanned. If you accidentally posted in karma limited communities and had stuff removed, it's pretty likely that you got shadowbanned and should just make a new account.
