Shadowbanning FAQ

​

What is shadowbanning?

Shadowbanning occurs when a user’s content is suppressed or hidden on a platform without their knowledge, typically due to rule violations or spam. This makes it difficult for them to reach or engage with others. Although no platforms officially admit to practicing shadowbanning, experiencing unusually low views may be an indicator that your content is being restricted.
