I got a violation, (never banned yet but went through maybe 10 accounts in 3 years of use,) one of the later ones was for suggesting Musk should ride his spaceships up into orbit.
Apparently it’s threatening violence. Appeal denied.
Comment on As of today, I have stopped using Reddit entirely.

What was the likely innocuous comment that caught you a ban? I got IP banned for asking when they’re going to launch Marjorie Taylor Greene into the sun. Apparently that was “promoting violence”.

Someone was complaining that in their country, everything requires identity verification under the guise of “age verification.” I mentioned the existence of “VPN Gate”—a completely open-source, non-profit, educational VPN project that uses residential IPs rather than standard VPN IPs. My account was likely flagged as spam.
