Been trying to use reddit with tor and the reddit mods have shadow banned me on multiple accounts and I have sent an appeal on all of them so will need to wait for them to get back to me on this, but I don’t think they will lift it to be honest.

        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
