How to Look “Human” on Reddit: A Beginner Trust Checklist

This is the simplest way to reduce removals: behave like a normal user for a week. Here’s exactly what that means.

TL;DR: Read → vote → comment → post slowly. Avoid repetition, links early, and “marketing” patterns.

Best starter guide: Start Here.

Daily “Human” Checklist (10 Minutes)

  1. Read 5 threads in 1–2 subreddits.
  2. Upvote what you genuinely like (don’t overdo it).
  3. Leave 2–3 useful comments.
  4. Save 1 great post as a format reference.

Weekly “Human” Checklist (1 Week)

  • Join 3–5 relevant subreddits (not 50 at once).
  • Post max 1/day once you’ve commented.
  • Reply to comments (don’t vanish).
  • Avoid copy/paste across communities.

What Looks Automated (Avoid)

  • Posting links as your first actions
  • Same domain repeated in multiple subreddits
  • Crossposting too fast
  • Title patterns that look like ads

Full prevention list: Avoid Reddit Filters.

When to Post Your First Thread

  1. After you’ve made 10–20 helpful comments.
  2. When you can match the subreddit’s format.
  3. When you can answer replies quickly.
