I got shadowbanned literally minutes after posting a response to Biden calling him a walking punchline who's a trojan for Kamala.
Only been actively using the damn platform for a week on an old account.
So, what happens after you get shadowbanned? Make a new one?
  Edit: By the way, if you wanna verify just msg me here or on reddit for my handle. It's just easier than getting spammed by having it here. Reddit: HappilyGrim no underscore. Maybe I can get it undone with a third party @ing twitter and asking.
 
Edit 2: Sent a support ticket in and got a response saying:

Thank you for your inquiry. People may express themselves on Twitter as long as they do not violate our Twitter Rules. We do not block, limit, or remove content based solely on an individual’s views or opinions. In some situations, your Tweet may not be seen by everyone, as outlined in this Help Center article.

Basically, Twitter is denying that they shadowbanned me, even as they shadowban me. Not a damn thing I can do either since I can't post and obviously don't have the followers to defend me and call it out and get their attention. I made a tweet with the two unedited screenshots posted here, but since I'm shadowbanned no one can see them. Surprise!

You can use this site to check for shadowbans. Sometimes they will expire after a certain amount of time I think, but who knows how it works exactly.

Already did before posting just to confirm. So it moreorless verified what I suspected. I've heard they can go either way, but typically when someone @'s Twitter they magically disappear. Shocking, right? But I suppose that's if they notice.
Here's the results by the way:

why would you think that? there was even a leak of how their admin panel looks like, and it has a shadowban feature.

It was more sarcasm than a legitimate question. Although there's no way for someone to know that online lol.

They probably do that, too. Wouldn't surprise me.
