So, kind of an odd series of events bare with me if you can.
No matter what I do, my reddit accounts are banned. I have a feeling that something happened where my post thought I had spammed at one point and I got caught in a filter. When attempting to create a new account to appeal, I think I may have deleted the old account and the Admins likely saw that as ban evasion which I was not shooting for when attempting my appeal because of a bug. Now whenever I try to create an account I get banned within a couple of minutes and my appeals have not been acknowledged in well over a year.
Is there anyone out there that can see what account I was initially banned on and why I cannot appeal? I am a pretty good egg, most harm I had ever done was maybe have a political disagreement in one of the news sub reddits. I just find it to be a useful tool to talk to people locally because of the large audience.
Let me know if anyone can help.

Your best bet is to create a new account with no connection to the banned accounts. I made a how-to on how to do this https://lemmy.world/post/52856407 The downside is that you might have to do most of your redditing on your phone.

What are the benefits of being there vs here? Looks to be in beta. Opinions on it?
Pros: it’s not reddit
Cons: it’s have small user
Any other options out there that are quality?
Do you have a static IP? If you do, once you get shitlisted by the internet, it’s very hard to get off it without completely nuking your digital fingerprint. Your IP, your device identifiers. It’s all used to know that you’re the same person and they’ll instaban you. It’s mess.
Enshittification for you.
There’s really nothing you can do. It’s all automated AI shit now. You cannot reason with it and they don’t care anyway. Reddit is a sinking ship that doesn’t want you. It’s going to be all bots soon.
You’re better off.
If you’re just trying to figure out which account was initially banned:
Open up your browser in incognito/private mode. Go to the user profile page for each account:

From what I’m reading, you should be logging into the reddit appeal page with the banned account. Don’t try with a different account, and don’t use the reddit app. You’ll need to open the appeal page in a browser tab. If you’re on mobile and clicking on any link automatically opens the reddit app, try long pressing the link and then select “open in new tab”:

Right, have you tried this step yet?:

If it makes you feel any better, I’m a Redfugee too
Account got banned for “ban evasion” which I didn’t even do. First appeal hasn’t been heard, too sad to even try to make a new appeal
