After a long time I find that my reddit account was blocked... "May be due to the over sharing of two of my article on subreddit before six months".

Right now I am able to log into my account and can post the updates but those updates are not public... infact my whole account is not public and shows page not found when opened in incognito mode.

I checked all settings but it didn't help...

I think it was blocked...

Is there is any way to unblock it?

— the symptoms you describe (you can post while logged in but others can’t see your content; your profile returns “not found” when logged out) match the common account-level visibility problems people report. A quick first check is to open an incognito/private window (or ask a friend) and visit your profile page at https://www.reddit.com/user/YourUsername. If you get a 404 or “nobody here goes by that name” it’s usually a site-level restriction; if you see an explicit “this account has been suspended” banner that’s a formal suspension. Community helpers keep a short checklist you can follow to confirm either case. (reddit.com)

If it’s an account-level issue, file an appeal through Reddit’s official support form rather than messaging moderators. Use the “Submit a request” page and choose Account help → Account status → “My account has been wrongly suspended” (if your account was hacked, choose the “I think my account has been hacked” path instead). Include the exact username and the email currently reachable for you. Reddit Help — Submit a request. (support.reddithelp.com)

What to include in the appeal: your Reddit username, the email on the account (or a contact email), a very short timeline of what happened, and whether you suspect the account was compromised. If the cause might have been frequent link-posting or self-promotion, acknowledge it and say you’ll stop—being factual and concise helps. Don’t open replacement accounts to “test” visibility (creating alts to evade a restriction can itself trigger enforcement). Appeals may take time and sometimes need repeated, calm submissions (many community reports advise no more than one appeal per 24 hours). (support.reddithelp.com)

Practical notes: keep appeal text polite and focused, save screenshots (post URLs, error messages, timestamps), check spam folders for replies, and keep a log of appeal dates. If weeks pass with no response, continue using the official form or, if your account was truly hacked, use the hacked-account path so the admins can prioritize recovery. (support.reddithelp.com)

Have you asked Reddit? That would seem the obvious way forward...

Write in support. Well, or create a new one.

That kind of ban is called a shadowban. Regular Reddit moderators cannot perform site-wide shadowbans, only administrators can. Usually it happens to spammers.
