How do I Reddit create a new account properly? or What’s the best way to Reddit create a new account?

"What’s the best way to Reddit create a new account? Any tips?"

Hey y’all, I’m kinda new here and wanna Reddit create a new account the *right* way. Seen some folks get shadowbanned or stuck with weird limits, and I don’t wanna mess up.

Should I use a throwaway email or my main one?
Any tricks for picking a username that doesn’t suck?
Also, do I *need* to verify the email right away, or can I skip it?

Oh, and if you’ve got tips to avoid those "error" messages when you Reddit create a new account, pls share. Tried twice yesterday and got hit with a "try again later" thing. Annoying af.

Thanks in advance! 🙏
