I don't think this is shadowbanning. It's just that the feature of viewing individual tweets via a direct link has been very flaky for a month, and getting worse over time. Tweets will just randomly show up as "unavailable". (And I think it's unreliability in their systems rather than a policy, since I have also seen it happen e.g. for tweets by Musk.)

It’s been bad for years, especially in in-app web browsers like discord. The success rate for me was in the 10-20% success range unless I opened the link in a logged-in, non-in-app browser. I deleted my twitter account at the first rumour of Musk, so I don’t know if it’s getting worse, but I find that hard to believe based on how bad it was before.
