It appears shadowbans are now standard fair over at mastodon.social. I contacted the admins to get their response, lets hope im mistaken, but the more I look into it the more corrupt the joinmastodon and mastodon.social organizations are starting to look. Uncovered some really nasty stuff these past few weeks.
I'll share the full details in a post later today. I'd like to see if the admins actually respond first.
@DavidBond
Yea basically they silence you but select the option not to notify you that you've been silenced.
@DavidBond
No our instance isn't silenced. This happens to accounts on M.S though they did do it to our instance once in the past but when I caught them and appealed to the admins they reversed our silencing.
@freemo what does that mean? silence your instance?
