        It’s very hard for them to do so, they’ll usually do it for people with multiple accounts in the same browser doing it, but they don’t bother with any of the bigger methods. Doesn’t make them look as good and powerful to normies.

      That’s how it’s supposed to be, but anyone actually aware of how Reddit does things knows that they’re actually laughably bad at enforcing their rules. They only do it to look good and convince normies that it’s hard and that they’ll get caught (I don’t know why, seems like preaching to the choir, since normies aren’t interested in this shit but whatever).
