Need help creating a Reddit account—any tips for beginners? or What should I know before creating a R

For creating a Reddit account, I’d say go with the app. Less clutter, and notifications are easier to manage.

Use a burner email if you’re paranoid (ProtonMail’s free and works great).

Username doesn’t matter unless you’re planning to be a power user. Just pick something you won’t hate in a year.

Biggest newbie mistake? Not reading sub rules before posting. Instant downvotes.
