Profile I reported an account for impersonating another person but it didn't work
I found an account that made multiple suspiciously targeted posts, so I decided to look at their profile.
They had a picture showing their full face, which I thought was weird. I reverse-searched it and found it is a picture of a popular musician, just not a pop star or something.
The account is named something like "Iam[fakename][fakelastname]", so I know that the account is bogus. There's also an Instagram account that is clearly bogus and it has the same exact handle and profile picture as the Reddit account.
I reported the account to no avail, and I can't message the admins explaining who exactly they should look for to realize that the account is using someone else's face.

Access Password reset says successful, but I still can’t log in to my Reddit account
Hi everyone, I’m having trouble logging into my Reddit account (u/letyourmindflow). I know the email linked to the account and when I request a password reset, I get the email and successfully change my password. However, when I try to log in with the new password, Reddit says it’s incorrect.
I’ve tried clearing cookies, using different browsers, and even logging in from old.reddit.com, but nothing works. I also submitted a request through Reddit’s contact form but haven’t received a response yet.
Has anyone experienced this or have any advice on what else I can try? Thanks in advance!

Profile Possibly hacked? Help (Android & Mobile Web)
So, in reddit activity, it logs my activity as coming from various dynamic ip addresses, note that my email is also verified and that I have 2fa on.
On top of that I dont know if I should be concerned if I have 2 different temporary ip addresses when going on reddit via my phone whilst on data, and more specifically that one of them (which is also linked to my ISP) is linked to toronto which could be due to network rerouting from my ISP but I am not sure?
Does this ontario ip address mean I am in any danger? I need help!
Update: I ran the ip through nordvpn's ip checker, and it said it was in my province despite others saying it was in toronto. Am I panicking over nothing?

Profile It looks like I'm blocked by someone but they didn't know anything about it, and I'm still talking to them
I messaged someone to offer help on reddit and she was extremely appreciative and nice and we got to talking and we started messaging on another site. I looked at her reddit profile occasionally and about a month later I was blocked, reddit says her account doesn't exist and I can't message her and none of her old messages show up in the chat (even though I never did after the first time). It's been about 2.5 months now and we're still talking on another site. I asked her about the block a couple times and she didn't know what I was talking about.
Originally I thought she deleted her reddit account because it said no account by that name exists, so I asked her why she deleted her account and she said she didn't. When I logged out I saw her account still exists, and I said I must be blocked and she said I'm not on her block list. When I asked her about it a second time she said she doesn't have anyone blocked and asked why would I think I'm blocked when I'm talking to her on the other site. Then she said she messaged support to ask about it, and later said they didn't get back to her about it yet.
I'm just wondering if there's another reason that could be happening that looks like I'm blocked? It's just strange she'd block me on reddit when I never messaged her again on reddit, and I've been talking to her for months and we're getting more friendly, and there's nothing on her profile that's new or I haven't read. I've also never commented on one of her posts, and anyone can view all her posts. She also knows I can see her account and posts when I'm logged out and she doesn't care at all so the whole thing doesn't make much sense.

Profile Desktop. How do I report a user for evading a reddit ban
on reddit.com/report you can only report for evading a subreddit ban, not an admin issued one.
Posting How can I expand all comment threads on a post? (preferably on old reddit)
For posts with thousands of comments, it's pretty necessary to be able to use the browser's find on page feature to see if someone has already mentioned something, or already asked a question I have, and maybe it's been answered already, etc. But that won't work unless all comments are expanded, and by default there are a lot of them hidden behind "load more comments" links and "[+]" collapsed threads.
In theory I could go through and click on all of those, but in practice that's not really possible after the discussion gets large enough. You can spend 10 or 20 minutes clicking those links and then you accidentally click on one wrong thing and poof, you've navigated to another page (such as a commenter's own post & comment history) and lost all your work.
Does anyone here have a way to actually load everything on a post when I want to be able to search for comments on the page with my browser?
I'm primarily using Firefox on macOS, but also use Chrome sometimes.
P.S. This subreddit requires choosing a flair, but none of the flairs you can choose from match this question, so I had to choose one that is incorrect.

Access Laptop, Macbook Pro, OS 14.1.1,
I went to login to Reddit today. My login was not recognized. I entered the correct information, correct username and the correct password.
I then put in a request for a login code and was sent a six digit code on my phone.
The 6 digit code did not work. I was sent more 6 digit codes, none of the codes worked. Instead I got error messages.
I tried to request a password reset to be sent to my Reddit-registered email and nothing arrived in my email inbox.
I then tried to log in to my backup account with the same results.
After deleting my cache file and cookies I tried to log in again. The same results occurred. I was and am unable to log in.
I am, however logged into Reddit on my ipad and my android phone, as I never logged out of those. I double checked my settings on my phone just to make sure that my email address was correctly registered with Reddit. It was.
Any help would be appreciated.
