Reddit is shadow banning people like crazy as well. This is scary

[–] Vopyr@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah, I was shadowbanned twice in a week because Reddit filters are garbage.

What does shadow banning typically look like? I would assume you don't get a notification? How do you find out?

[–] dumblederp@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Logout and browse your user profile page via old.Reddit it'll say banned or suspended.

Ah. That's even easier. Good to know how to quickly check.

How do you find out?

I assume looking at reddit through an incognito window and seeing none of your posts appearing

Hmm. Will try it some time. Sometimes it feels like being shadow-banned.... but TBH it's more likely just not so active communities / mediocre contribution on my part.
