    It's hard to make a new account and not get flagged instantly.

    You have to change ip address. Email, even the device you use

    I can't be bothered anymore so now I just don't use reddit

    Oh no, it might take a whole minute.

    It will take one reboot of my router or one reset of the WAN-interface.

    Reddit still fingerprints your device.

    I'm permabanned on reddit. I have a VPN that changes my IP every day or so. If I make a new account on my phone or pc it's banned within a few hours.

    Until I get a new phone or pc I can't make an account. It knows the device, not just the IP.

    Idk what you are doing to make that neccessary (and am too afraid to ask)

    I was site banned as well but made a new account a very short time after the ban and have yet to be banned again.

    But it makes sense they are fingerprinting your device somehow to prevent ban-evasion.

    Only way I could see is only visiting the page within a obfuscated/very private OS (like Tails?) or a browser that fully wipes and obfuscates any connection between hardware and browser.

    You needing an entirely new device, like a completely different computer, just takes a whole minute?

    Do you just have spare PC's laying around your house?
