    Discord vs Reddit vs Twitch: The most powerful ban evasion detector?

    We know that these platforms have incredibly powerful ban evasion filters that filter on browser fingerprinting, OS fingerprinting, machine learning, etc. The question is, which of them is the most powerful at detecting ban evaders?

    So should I use Mull over Brave? And why is the last version six months old?

    Edit: Do you mean this version?

    Do you mean this? I don't want any Tor-related stuff, and this says something about Tor, so that's something I'd avoid.

    Edit: Someone said that it does in fact not use Tor, so I am safe from landing on those websites, but do you think Mull can handle fingerprinting blocking better than Brave?

    Are there any browsers similar to LibreWolf for mobile and Android?

    I use LibreWolf mainly because it handles fingerprinting and tracking blocking well and is open source. I also do not want Tor-related stuff because I don't want to risk going to illegal websites. So do you know any LibreWolf alternatives for mobile and Android that handle fingerprinting and tracking blocking well, automatically delete cookies and are open source?

    But I don't get it. If Reddit admins implemented new ban evasion filters, then how can we still circumvent sitewide suspensions while subreddit bans are impossible to evade? I hope that it stays that way.

    Why is it harder to evade a subreddit ban than a sitewide suspension?

    **I am not advocating for ban evasion.** Reddit has implemented a powerful ban evasion filter that catches ban evaders who use alternate accounts to post on a subreddit they were banned from. Though, the same cannot be said for sitewide suspensions. While simply using a fingerprinting-blocking browser that deletes cookies every time you close the browser, you can circumvent a sitewide suspension, but evading a subreddit ban seems impossible. So why does Reddit prevent circumventing a subreddit ban while they are okay with sitewide suspension evasions? Don't get me wrong, I respect Reddit for not being too punishing to its users, but it still feels weird that they gave moderators so much power while administrators don't use it at all. Mind explaining their choices? **Again, I am not advocating for ban evasion, and please do not circumvent a ban.**

    The idea was to fake Reddit removals so the users would think Reddit admins censor information. Remember, you cannot see whether a comment is removed by Reddit or faked by a user. Only posts show that on new.reddit.com, though reveddit.com can indicate whether a comment was removed by Reddit or not.

    Funny idea for people who want to edit their comments in protest

    Remember the people who edited their comments where it said that they were editing their comments to protest? Then they deleted their accounts. What if you people who mass-edited your comments edited it instead with `[ Removed by Reddit ]`? Like, you edit all of your comments (not posts) with `[ Removed by Reddit ]`, so if people see your comment that has lots of upvotes replaced by `[ Removed by Reddit ]`, then they will think Reddit is censoring information. This is kind of accurate because Reddit is known for removing random information and punishing people for ridiculous reasons. This feels like an effective way to protest. So what is your opinion about this idea?

    The URL looks currently like this: ``` https://lemmy.ml/?dataType=Post&listingType=Local&page=1&sort=Active ``` But `&sort=Active` is at the end, while `&page=1` is right before. This is bad design, because `&page=1` is the one that changes every time when scrolling and pressing, so put `&page=1` at the end of the URL please: ``` https://lemmy.ml/?dataType=Post&listingType=Local&sort=Active&page=1 ``` See?

    Why? Well, remember the power-tripping mods? Remember the admins falsely suspending accounts for ridiculous reasons? See? They are both our enemies. Always has been our enemy. But now, the mods are shaking in fear of losing their power. They can finally feel what the users felt like. The admins are also uncomfortable. They both are at war with each other. Remember, our enemies are fighting with each other instead of teaming up to ban us. I just love how they finally get to experience our suffering. I can feel the pleasure of the mods begging admins to not take away their power.

    Can mods ban deleted accounts?

    Let's say we have someone who shitposts on a subreddit. The mods will ban the shitposter, but the shitposter deletes their account. Now can the mods ban this deleted account? They can remove the post, but now they wonder whether they can ban the account. How would that work? Would the mods request the admins to look at the deleted account? Also, how does that work with the ban evasion filter?
