Looks like that’s not a good month for reddit.

I’m pretty sure they were very sorry about a that a few years ago and promised to stop shadowbanning people. But I wouldn’t be surprised if they just continued.

They absolutely continued and never stopped. I have a shadowbanned account right now for the crime of signing up under a VPN. This happened last month, it was shadowbanned from the moment of creation. I can post all I want with it, but when someone else tries to look for my posts or profile, it does not exist.

Interesting, but like I said, I’m not surprised by those fuckers.

I think vpn by account creation is a big no no with many providers. Opening an account via public wifi and using vpn afterwards my help.
