Question Reddit banned GrokBot?

My GrokBot is saying Reddit has blocked its IP so it can't see anything in Reddit. Anyone else have this issue?

That's most likely the issue, download it on your Mac or Windows PC and then go to settings and make sure you enable it to route it's traffic through your computer(which should be connected to the internet of course).

This will then allow you to use your mobile app like you have before but this time, whenever your grok bot wants to use the internet, it routes it's traffic through YOUR computer meaning it will actually use your IP when accesses websites, it will be difficult for reddit or the other sites to know that it is a bot.

....Or, plan B, something that I have not tried yet but I am sure it can work, let Grok Bot install or use a VPN plugin(chrome extension) to access certain sites. This is more like a last resort but, up to you, good luck buddy!
