So the distinction between ban and shadow ban seems pretty minor. Anyway zero warnings and I’ve posted no “ideological” material other than fully in context responses to posts.
Again, same here as Reddit. Mods didn’t like a particular political association with a post so made the choice to label it ideological and ban me.
It always feels like the mods are against you, but plenty of HN users with roughly the same political or ideological associations stay within the site guidelines and don't get banned. The converse is also true: users with opposite views to yours, who break the site guidelines in the way that you did, also get banned.
