Has anyone gotten a device ban on Instagram or Reddit? How did you fix it? or Device ban on Instagram

Title: *"Device ban instagram reddit – anyone else deal with this? How’d you fix it?"*

Hey y’all,

So I got hit with a *device ban instagram reddit* situation (ugh). Insta straight up won’t let me make new accounts, and Reddit’s being weird too. Tried factory reset, VPNs, even a new SIM… nada.

Anyone else run into this? How strict are these bans really?

- Did you appeal? Did it work?
- Any workarounds besides buying a whole new phone?
- Are they tracking IMEI or just IP/device ID?

Kinda desperate here lol. Appreciate any tips!
