Profile Trying to to select account

1 Upvotes

I’m trying to delete this account but here’s the dilemma.

It was made through an old email account. i deleted said email account prior. So i don’t receive emails to this account anymore ofc. so now im trying to delete this reddit account but anything security wise is being sent to said deleted email account (i.e. setting up password to delete account).

any advice? or is this just now a forever account.

Access I've been active on Reddit every single day for the past 12 days, and I have a verified email with 2fa enabled, but I have never been able to get out of the "lowest" CQS tier. How the hell can I improve my CQS?

Posting I can't post NSFW images, not even in my own NSFW subreddit and or NSFW profile on desktop. NSFW

2 Upvotes

Basically, what it says on the tin. I have pictures on my PC that I want to make a post with. The upload interface works great if I'm posting worksafe images. But if I have a single NSFW image in what I'm uploading, it doesn't upload to the website. I can't even drag the images into the post.

Obviously, this doesn't seem to be a problem for you know, any of the other users that are posting NSFW content today. I've tried going to other subreddits and posting there, and I'm still blocked at an interface level, without even an error message.

Profile (Android) ich verstehe es nicht

1 Upvotes

Folgendes...

Ich besitze diesen Account/ dieses Konto schon etwas länger, ABER jedes Mal wenn ich einen neuen Account/ neues Konto erstellen möchte wird innerhalb weniger Stunden (max 3 Tage) der neue Account gesperrt/gebannt oder idk. Ich muss nichts machen.

Account erstellt mit normalen Namen. Ich muss nicht mal ein Profil-Bild reinstellen o.ä. und wenig später kann ich keine Kommentare mehr schreiben. Falls ich ein Profilbild reingestellt habe ist das nicht mehr sichtbar und überall kommen Fehlermeldungen.

Ich dachte kurz an einen allgemeinen Bann/ Sperre meiner IP Adresse aber dann würde das keinen Sinn ergeben das dieser jetzige Account noch problemlos funktioniert.

Ich habe es in den letzten Wochen mehrmals versucht einen neuen Account/ Konto zu eröffnen, aber jedes Mal das gleiche. Darf man hier nur 1 besitzen?

Ich verlierer langsam die Nerven weil ich nirgends eine Erklärung bekomme und schon alles versucht habe.

P.s.: Dies ist gerade mein Hobby Account.

Mobile/App Message Timestamp on IOS Mobile App

1 Upvotes

The message timestamp in the private messages traps the time when a message is started, not when it was sent.

The messages then appear in the wrong order when there is a gap of several minutes between starting and sending a message and the other person has sent a message whilst I am writing my message.

It becomes hard to trace the conversation thread. Ideally, a thread like feature would be helpful.

Access (All platforms) Apparently had two reddit accounts associated with the same email address, and deleting one deleted both.

1 Upvotes

On an alt for obvious reasons... Posting here because there really is no combination of options on the support request form that covers this.

About a week ago I received two password reset requests for an account I don't remember having, but knew was mine from quite a while ago (the username was an old one of mine!). I logged into the account, thought wow, that's funny, and deleted the account without much thought.

It turns out I somehow made two reddit accounts linked to one email address, so now my main account has been deleted too! I didn't know this was possible - is it? - and never thought to check which email is associated with my main account first, since they're completely separate accounts.

I'm a little confused on how this happened (and a little bummed), but I guess there's probably no way for me to retrieve the main account. Even so, it's probably worth asking. And I'm admittedly kinda curious about whether this happens often or if this is completely unheard of.

Access Why subs appear where they shouldn’t

Post image
0 Upvotes

So I already asked about why russian subs I m u t e d still appear in recs under posts I read, but got no answer.

Now there is another problem of the same kind.

I visited a m u t e d russian sub to make sure its m u t e d , and it stays in my “recent” for weeks, despite visiting many other subs after.

What is going on?

*my post is not about appealing, ffs.

Posting "Hide" function on own user's profile

1 Upvotes

Hi!

I've always thought (and was pretty sure) that the "hide" function on our own profiles' posts was to hide a post from our own profiles only while not removing it from the subreddit it was posted on. Am I wrong?

Lately I've noticed that hiding a post from my profile also had it hidden on the subreddit it was posted on. I would have bet that in the past a hidden post stayed displayed on the subreddit and that you had to delete it if you didn't want it to show there anymore.

Thanks for your input!

Profile Can I remove the NSFW tag from my account? NSFW

0 Upvotes

My profile picture doesn't show up in comments, but it's visible when someone visits my profile. My account is currently tagged as NSFW, and I use both NSFW and SFW subreddits.

I have a few NSFW posts, but I've hidden those posts and communities from my profile. My profile picture and banner are also completely SFW.

Can I safely turn off the NSFW tag in my profile settings or should I delete the NSFW posts first? If I do, will my profile picture start showing up in comments? Also, is there any risk if I do this?

Access My account is compromised

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Yesterday I opened reddit and found like dozens of notifications. When I opened them found many people replying to posts under my name in NSFW communities which I never joined or posted anything in it so which means my account got compromised.

I find it weird that the person who hacked my account never changed my password somehow and I don't know how he logged in since I always log in wih my gmail but my gmail account was not hacked.

I rarely download things from untrustworthy sources except I downloaded a program called Hookshot for recomps which I doubt was the cause.

The person who hacked me has macbook according to my latest log in activities and he always logged in with different IPs and it looks like automated log in because he logged in with different IPs but in short period in between.

Anyone knows how can I identify the cause of being compromised so I can avoid it the next time?

This is the first time I get hacked since I am always very careful and most of my important accounts have 2FA security.

I attached login activity with the red crossed lines belonging to me.

I will apreciate everyone's help

UPDATE: I ran a full system scan on my PC and phone. I have the two most powerful antivirus programs and didn’t find anything.

My biggest suspicion is that my login data with the same password got breached in July and October after some websites I used got hacked. I just found out about it. It might be the reason.

Posting ¿Como bloqueo a alguien que ya me bloqueo a mi anteriormente?

0 Upvotes

En un reddit varias personas me han hecho la típica de decir la última palabra y bloquearme. Pero pueden seguir viendo mis mensajes y me da la sensación de que aún pueden darme downvote. ¿Cómo puedo bloquearles yo también? No puedo ver sus perfiles o mensajes, no me salen en el buscador, he mirado en la pestaña de “Administrar cuentas bloqueadas” y no encuentra sus nombres. He probado en la app y la versión de web y no consigo hacerlo.

Any way to opt out of this?!? I’m tired of all of the aggressive slop/junk recommendations. If this is supposed to drive engagement it’s doing the reverse for me. And no it’s not my own usage… there is no reason to suggest a plumbing subreddit to me.

Access u/SonicGrid: password reset succeeds but login still rejected, moderator locked out

1 Upvotes

I moderate r/felixthecat as u/SonicGrid and cannot log in.

  • The reset email arrives and names u/SonicGrid.

  • Submitting a new password returns a success response from your server (faceplate-alert level="6" message="Password reset"), but no “password changed” email arrives.

  • Logging in immediately afterwards with that password fails: POST /svc/shreddit/account/login returns 400, “Invalid username or password”. There is no lock message, no rate limit (x-ratelimit-remaining: 218) and no 2FA prompt.

  • The same happens in the mobile app, and when logging in with the account’s email instead of the username.

  • One-time email login links do not work for this account, though they work for my other account.

  • Tested 15 Nov 2026 in a clean Chrome Incognito window, including with a letters-and-digits-only password.

The reset is accepted but not applied to login. Could an admin check the account’s status and credential record for u/SonicGrid?
