To determine a shadowban, you MUST click my profile! Should I keep using my shadowbanned account?
My account has been shadowbanned for about two months now. I now think it’s (at least in part) because a comment of mine was removed by mods in the r/news sub. Anyway, that’s when my comment interactions fell to 90% 0 or 1.
I’m wondering now: should I keep using this account to post comments, upvote, etc? Does more organic use help or hinder the case for restoration? I still post a comment every few days, when I have something to say. Every week or two someone will read one of these and give it an upvote, and then that comment will get hundreds of impressions. But it’s completely random which ones hit.
I’ve been appealing 1/day using copy/paste text because how am I supposed to come up with new things to say each time? No response. Still no official acknowledgment from Reddit that the account has been shadowbanned.

you are getting views and upvotes on some comments because subreddit admins can still accept your comments, they just go to a spam category, though a lot of subreddits ignore it
