"textContent": "They’ve made it much harder to do this as well. Karma isn’t the only metric they use. Now there’s a Contributor Quality Score, which you can’t see yourself (without an external tool), which is not just if you’re a spambot or not, it’s how much you grind reddit. I used to cycle through accounts in triplets: Run one, gently age a second, start a fresh one. When I throw away the oldest one, everything would get bumped up. I can’t do that anymore. Accounts that are too old but not used enough get shadow-banned automatically in some subs.\n\nIronically, I stopped using reddit entirely because I couldn’t participate in /r/privacy because of this hidden score.\n\nI’ll second Lemmy and Piefed (federated to connect, use one or the other as you prefer the UI).\n\nhttps://support.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/19023371170196-What-is-the-Contributor-Quality-Score",
