Just migrated over from Reddit. My account was only 19 days old, and Reddit’s automated spam bots completely shadowbanned me purely for connecting over standard mobile carrier data. I didn’t even break a rule—the system just flagged my account profile out of nowhere and completely broke my mobile settings menu. Glad to be on the Fediverse instead
yes, i think thats what drove alot of users away, and became lurkers, now they are trying to “claw” back some users so they can mine them more for Ai scraping, while not easing thier filters(yet).
the purges include multi-account bans.
