As soon as I make an account and try to post a comment or something. I get “server error” which is basically a ban.

    How do some people avoid getting banned on reddit?

    Like right now?

    • Not engaging in subreddits criticizing the current US government and politicians. This includes talking about any violence against groups and individuals, even in the passive, and even things like quashing bugs or shooting varmints.
    • Not using English.
    • Lurking only.
    • Discuss only hobbies. No discussion of politics nor controversial subjects inimical to the interests of Reddit the corporation and its shareholders.

    Besides the unexpected bans, there are also some heavy-handed takeovers of some subreddits that are even remotely political in nature, as original mods are allegedly kicked out and replaced with freshly-made accounts assigned as new mods. That some accounts are said to even harassed with multiple reportages coming from controlled accounts.
