I have tried automation tools in the past but didn't get very far with them.

Not very big on astrotrufing but recently i've been trying to craft a few accounts for an experiment i'm doing. Set up a new account reddit account few days ago - different IP and different browser to my main reddit account but both on the same device and both accessed via the web.

Legit account, got a few threads that were picking up. Then out of nowhere every single thread and post got removed without warning and for no apparent reasons by 'reddits filters'. If I look in to things manually, some posts say they were removed by moderators.

What is most likely the problem here?
 
There could be many things.

First of all, your setup absolutely sucks.

Just because you are changing browsers doesn't mean they can't see you are using multiple accounts.

WebGL and Canvas are tied to the device you are using, and Reddit can see it, so using multiple browsers on a single device won't cut it.

I am not sure how you set up those different IPs - if you set it up inside the browser then your IP is probably leaking.

If you used Residential proxies then those are usually changing... you can't get a decent residential proxy for long.. they can also detect them if you have a crappy provider. Some IPs are blacklisted as proxies... you need to double check.

If you used Datacenter IPs then those are easily detectable. Those are usually IPs you can rent for a month and they don't drop.

If you used mobile IPs but you didn't set the location and operator range then your proxy provider will throw you around the country from one location and operator to the other, so you need to manually set a proxy location and operator for a single area.

There are too many things you could have done wrong.

If you want to grow Reddit accounts then use your mobile devices with actual mobile connection.

Nice post mate. Yeah it was a bit of a lazy set-up using opera built-in VPN lol. I'll get some VMs and antidetect browsers.

Any recommendations for AD browsers. Anything better than T13? It was all the rage when I was in to this more.

Most ADs aren't suitable for Reddit because instead of issuing legit system specs they use Noise which makes your machine 100% unique so that's a clear tell that you are up to no good.

If you browse the other forum then you'll find posts where people complaining that ADs + proxies are not working very well so I don't know which one to recommend as I don't grow Reddit accounts myself, but the fool-proof way is to do them by hand using burner phones unless you need to do a large amount which is pretty impossible these days I think.

You need a really solid proxy provider. The main (biggest sites) won't work as their service is shit.

Try @TheMarquis service - He sells 4G Romanian proxies that he himself provides, I think, so there's no middleman.

From there on your issues will just begin because the TCP/IP is coming from a mobile device and you will be using a Windows/Mac profiles with Antidetect and if you want to use Android etc then the AD can't mimic it very well... you will get caught a lot and often.. I think besides Trustpilot, Reddit is one of the most hardest sites to farm these days... at least successfully and on scale.
 
Many years ago I bookmarked the name of a 4g proxy script that worked well with a simbank that apparently many proxy sellers relied on. Can't remember or find the bookmark know but apaprently it was script that a lot of the proxy sellers on the other site themselves rely on (it was not proxidize or an overpriced service like that, it was something remarkably cheap that didn't backdoor your own IPs, just configure what ever your local setup was)

Does this ring a bell here with anyone? Might be time to try firing up an instance
