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

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

you do a thing, but there are no interactions. maybe in only certain contexts. so to you it appears as if you're engaging, but your posts and sometimes reactions/votes don't show up except to you.

haha. seeing as I don't usually get much interaction I would never notice.

switched to lemmy as main platform on my phone a few days ago anyway. when boost for reddit finally was blocked completely. will try to be more active here and hope many other people do the same... there is a good chance with all that's going on.

yeah I probably wouldn't notice if everyone else in town was replaced by robots tomorrow until I went and tried to feed randos and found they didn't eat anymore.
