Reddit Bot Account Maker Documentation
TODO: I will be working on an API wrapper for this and updating/optimizing the code for this soon, be on the lookout. Also I wrote this a while back, so the code is not up to my standards anymore. Don't use this as a template or anything 😂
NOTE: This is a basic bot. Expect it to do basic things. Please don't abuse it
This bot creates a random username and password, verifies the email, and views the inbox
REQUIREMENTS:
Linux (Ubuntu)
Python3 (Ubuntu has Python3 preinstalled)
Firefox (Ubuntu has Firefox preinstalled)
2captcha API key (must manually input in code)
Various Libraries (These need to be manually installed)
- Selenium CMD: pip3 install selenium
- Tor CMD: sudo apt install tor
- Requests CMD: pip3 install requests
- Names CMD: pip3 install names
USAGE:
CMD: python code.py
TROUBLESHOOTING:
Error: Service error Note: This has to do with the current state of the API that solves captcha. It might be down or very slow.
Error: Unknown error Note: This can be a variety of things. After all, the web is a changing place and this code doesn't change to account for it. Most Likely: Could not find captcha. Manually enter user/pass and try again later. Other Possibility: The code for either old.reddit.com, reddit.com, or getnada.com has changed. Other Possibility: Actual unknown error.
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
There are set delays in the code that make it sleep. You can change it to be faster/slower, depends on your requirements. Don't run this in a VM. It won't work as tor won't actually get you a new IP. You must run this on a native Linux computer.
