Hi, when I was a reddit faker (I haven’t relapsed, I’ve stayed out of reddit and never posted another fake story, im cured) I wondered if someone the mods would figure out the tens of accounts that came from my computer and noticed I was the writer of many fake stories.

It seems like that never happened, but come on, the only thing I used at the time was Firefox Containers to be able to sign up with a different account. Not even a VPN or any of that.
