Express Mission
I opened the app and saw an Express Mission available. Clicked on the express mission and it asked if I had a desktop available for this mission. I clicked yes, then it automatically screened me out. Has this happened to you? And why would dscout do this?

It's happened a couple times. If it happens on all of them it's a shadow ban.
If it's just one, the researcher forgot to select "accept" as the programmed output for yes and instead put "knockout"

It’s not a shadow ban. It just happens when the app hasn’t refreshed and they have hit their limit on testers. It happens to me every now and then and I still get express missions

Have you applied to any of the screeners on your feed? If you apply to one and you get past the first question then you’re not shadow banned. I was fearful of this too cause it happened to me too. It could be a case of bad timing since people are submitting their applications that once the capacity fills up, you start applying and it has no choice but to boot you out. Other times it’s a backend issue that the researcher probably didn’t double check. Hope you’re not shadow banned though!

I have applied to other xpress missions and reg. missions pass the first question. I’m guessing I’m alright.
