Just head over to reveddit.com and look at a few controversial subreddits without the shadow-banning. It's truly terrifying to see the true scale of censorship and ghost-banning in big tech right now.

hm that extensions shows a high percentage of my of my comments are shadowbanned or less visible due to the parent being moderated out

but this is supposed to match the incognito browser experience and I can still see all my comments in incognito which means everyone else can

questionable.

> terrifying to see the true scale

Not as terrifying as the number of people who defend it.

Oh man, I have been banned and shadowbanned from a ton of subs! Outright banned from SandersForPresident, politics, WhitePeopleTwitter, BlackPeopleTwitter, LateStageCapitalism, pics, mildlyinfuriating, and several others.

For some, I was calling out the echo-chamber of the whole place, those are the politics ones. Oh, and calling out a troll account.

I got banned from a number of subs for making comments documenting the bot-like behavior of karma farming accounts. Accounts with millions of karma, reposting low-quality content as if it's organic.

And it looks like I just got banned from /r/ActualPublicFreakouts for calling out a troll for their behavior.

reddit really is a pathetic place for anything other than hobby subs with about 150k members or less.

EDIT: I used reveddit and saw just how much of the posts I make are invisible. Not just by getting shadowbanned by hack mods on popular subs, but by other comments and submissions getting deleted for one reason or another. It's absolutely absurd.
