how does one get shadowbanned these days? 

blatant scammers used to get shadowbanned, 

but it seems like some *normal community members are getting shadow-banned the past few days.

*by normal, i only mean from subj glance, i’m sure it’s not an easy job to draw the line for Farcaster team.

Previously I thought it was because the affected users didn't have PB. But now I think they were SB'd and that's blocking the PB.

Agree with @bitfloorsghost.eth, Warpcast needs an appeal process so false-positives have a way back without too much effort.

My account is shadow-banned

It means that non-followers can't interact with my account, see my comments, or read my posts. For proof, you can see some pictures below

It’s a devastating moment for me because I was shilling FC from 2023 and was very active here, way more than in any web2 social media

Thanks for the support Stella, we need a tool to review our accounts, so many legit users are getting screwed up by this

100%, it might be that you also think you're shadow banned when in fact you're not or it is temporary (like in my case)

I mass reported like 50 accounts that were following me as I joined here, all looking spammy with the same 3 casts, I was raging because I was followed only by them and started reporting all of them.
So maybe that's my problem here.

I suspect (but not sure) that maybe I unfollowed too many people at the same time. But I also texted Varun again to double check on that and ask for what the users can do in a similar situation

I just read your last cast updating the situation.
Good to know someone was able to figure out what's the issue and that the team are aware of this.
Did you also understand why were you sb in the first place?
