Am I shadowbanned? (piefed.blahaj.zone)

Hey, sorry if this doesn't go here. But my posts and comments seem to be getting no interaction, which is unusual. I was wondering if piefed.blahaj.zone had shadowbanned me for some reason, though I don't know why that would be.

what even is shadowbanning, I'm not sure I understand the concept - your posts and comments are just not visible to anyone but yourself? What is the mechanism for that, is it only a Reddit thing?

Yes, that's how it works on Reddit. The idea is that the spammer won't realize they're banned and won't try to circumvent it by creating a new account.
