Reddit stopped using shadowbans to ban actual users a while ago, it's only for spammers now. Of course, it still happens now and then accidentally, but it's not meant to be a punishment for real users that break sitewide rules.
- heavyset_go 5y agoIn my experience, all new accounts that try to post in main subreddits will be shadowbanned until a certain level of karma is accrued.
- alternatetwo 5y agoI think you mean the automod setting that autodeletes your comments if your account is too new? That's something entirely different and not a sitewide ban like a shadowban would be. That's up to the moderators of the subreddit.
