Ik, I probably should not be lurking on Reddit anyways, but we are missing a lot of communities here. The only communities I can reliably follow and get quality content is this one and c/linux, c/privacy and some FOSS subs

But if I want something else, reddit is the only alternative. Now, I don’t want to give any more of my data and the government of India isn’t really known for it’s tolerance of free speech they don’t like, so, is there a way to create an account on reddit using tor which won’t be blocked as soon as it’s created.

I feel like giving a email account would make it work (I have seen it remove many hurdles while using reddit without tor) so, is there a email service that reddit doesn’t block which will make my reddit account created through tor as good as a normal reddit account.

PS: If I comment is posted then it will be visible on your profile, but it won’t be visible to anyone else on reddit. You can’t upvote. You are essentially a ghost, this can be very useful saving stuff and all, but without the ability to post, it isn’t that helpful. Reddit automatically blocks protonmail and tutanota mails :")

    You’re never fully anonymous on the internet, ideally you can use a throwaway e-mail or no-email at all on reddit.

    Not sure for Indian laws, but in general ISP have to keep logs of who was using which IP at which time, and websites need to store IP of their user for a while. All it takes is a court order to get both information and finds out who you are
