i was legitimately confused why i was getting zero replies in very active threads. and yes this is just a whine post about how horribly opaque fediverse moderation is these days
rule 1? rule 2? fuck if I know what I said that broke those rules, here’s a ban that you don’t even get notified about. i probably said fuck too many times. that’s “not respectful”.
If you make someone aware of being shadowbanned, shadowbanning doesn’t work. It’s a great tool against spammers and generally abusive people, but it sure has its troubles when overused.
