As the title says. I believe Reddit has been using shadow bans to quiet dissenting opinions that aren’t inherently breaking TOS.

    At least you can move to another instance if you ever get banned on any given instance on Lemmy, or roll your own instance if you really want to own your presence on this platform and you have the local hardware to dedicate to that, or even the rest of the Fediverse for that matter, to also include Mastodon, Pixelfed, Loops, Matrix, and PeerTube.

      It’s a small at least for most communities tho because there is so much less participation in smaller instances they almost don’t matter. Especially if you start your own.
