So ... like reddit! :) Thankfully I don't depend on any of such services. It would make me rather angry.

- inigyou 3mo agoHN also has shadowbans. If your preferences have showdead=yes, you might see some.
- eimrine 3mo agoThat's a decent moderation, shadowban is a totally different thing. AFAIK, your karma is enough to vouch that Flagged topics or comments and return that piece into a regular displaying.
- inigyou 3mo agoThere's no difference between shadowban and moderation, shadowban is a moderation tool.
- eimrine 3mo agoShadowban and community-driven moderation are different poles. Former is a tool of shallow narcisses, latter is the best moderation strategy possible in the clearnet. Come on, commenter.
- qingcharles 3mo agoReddit is the only platform that actually tells you that you are shadowbanned, so at least they are upfront about it, but their appeal system sucks. My friend just appealed every day for just over 600 days and finally got their account un-shadowbanned.
- inigyou 3mo agoReddit doesn't tell you you're shadowbanned. You are thinking of regular banned.
- qingcharles 3mo agoNo, they have fully banned and shadowbanned. If you are shadowbanned you can login and check the appeals page but your posts and comments will no longer be visible. If you are fully banned you cannot log in.
- handoflixue 3mo ago"It only took two years for my friend to appeal a Ban" If you're willing to wait a couple years, I dare say a few services might have changed their minds by then, so it's too early to judge.
- qingcharles 3mo agoMost of them don't even have a reasonable appeals process at all :(
- eli 3mo agoIsn’t that definitionally impossible? If they tell you about it then it’s not a shadow ban.
- qingcharles 3mo agoI guess it depends on the definition of shadow ban. In Reddit's case it means you can continue to post and comment, it's just that your posts and comments are no longer seen by others.

- inigyou 3mo agoReddit doesn't tell you about that.
- ipaddr 3mo agoNo they don't and if they do tell you that means you have been banned.
