They also shadowban your whole account from posting submissions entirely. After posting a controversial story about the former world chess champion being tortured in an American jail I am not allowed to post any link anymore period.

Not being able to post isn't "shadowbanning", in fact it's the opposite, being able to post but generally not realising that it went to /dev/null

Have you considered emailing and asking about why this is happening?

Im able to post but it doesnt appear for other users. the link appears on my profile when Im signed in but others cant see it. the posts dont have a "discuss" button or unique url at all. I havent asked yet, but the timing does seem awful fishy, immediately after posting a popular controversial submission.

That's exactly my point in this thread. This shadowbanning needs to stop.
