Installed Tinder first time years ago, with current phone number. Back then periodically swiped everything and other times serious. Deleted the account multiple times and reinstantiated it after various periods. After the last one I waited approx. 6 months. I have the feeling I might be shadow banned on tinder due to some of the shenanigans I was doing years ago. The match rate is very VERY low, I mainly match with some bots or pros who aren't responding and that every other day. I think my profile is at least above average. I remember times even with my old and worse profile where I go 10+ matches a day. Additionally I live in Berlin the fckn capital of Germany. Do you guys know any failsafe way to either get to know if you're shadowbanned and/or to recover from such.

Well I wouldn't see any need to use the same account.
If you want a real fresh start, delete tinder and re install it, create an account with a new number and email, don't link your Instagram or Spotify (or anything linked to your previous account).
And that's it

Jeah I'll might do so. Gotta get a new SIM for this though. What about pictures that I've used before. Can I use them or not? I read in some articles that Tinder advanced with some of their algorithms and that the same pictures shouldn't be used.

I don't know about that but you could flip/tilt/crop or apply light filters to your photos and that may be enough for tinder to not recognize them
