I have little sympathy. Twitter's algorithms can shadow ban accounts at any time for seemingly any reason. I had my account locked for breaking a rule but I never found out what the rule I had broken was.
I sometimes have replies to me I can't see unless I search my username specifically.
Twitter support seems to be nothing more than a dumb script pretending to be a human. There's no transparency and all these anti-user features mean I for one an fed up with it.
When the internet was still young there was Usenet, which wasn't owned by a single corporation. Nowadays we have to submit to whatever whims these private companies dictate. There's no freedom of speech because they're private spaces. Unless we have something akin to Usenet or email where blocking can be done at individual levels but not mandated for everyone by a single corporation I don't want to take part any more.
