I think it took me a few weeks and building karma to be accepted.

MODERATORS
Use a proxy or vpn.
Are you suggesting that I cannot use reddit with tor?
I suggest that you can use Tor Browser with a proxy or so-called vpn extension. It would be a workaround. But there is nothing you can do because the moment they find out you use Tor they are legally allowed to remove you because they clearly say they do not want such users.
create a real throwaway email, outlook.com allows you to create an email without a phone number
that's the single best thing to do so you don't get shadow banned but here are a couple of other things:
-
subscribe to a couple of subreddits (mix default and non-default)
-
upvote random posts (from new, hot, top)
-
comment generic, known things on default subs
that should make your account pretty safe, even on tor
It works fine. old.reddit.com works better. Not sure if you can make an account that way or if you get robot-walled.
