Shadow ban - before it was cool

...Sigh , I can wholeheartedly relate to the distracting thoughts of sunnier shores 🙄 I've accepted your friend request on the Facebook thing , bare in mind that I am often subject to shadow ban - I don't have any if the important stuff taken down as ' false information ' and despite the aggressive accusations that get thrown around ... I have yet to have anyone dare try to offer rebuttal through public discourse It has to be said though , likes on my content can sometimes render a sort of contact shadow ban it seems - memes are fine , other than the limited audience , but definitely avoid engaging with the strong stuff 😆 It's a silly thing , I noticed it at several junctures ....the Brexit referendum the traffic just went haywire , again during COVID, and now I'm in this weird pitched battle against government and international mining concerns its at it again ....despite the legal complaint regarding ' negative effects on trade and loss of earnings ' I've got a freedom if information request pending with the home office now just to see the extent of the red flag that's been assigned to my online presence ...I don't imagine that'll go anywhere , but it's an interesting piece of circumstance that does hold weight in the other parallel complaints Ha ha , to be fair , in hindsight ...I think it would have served me better to have stayed a little smaller and flown a little lower , but we are where we are and the compensation claims are meaty enough that I can not worry too much about affecting trade , but I feel I'm in a bit of a privileged position in that regard , I doubt many would have been quite as tenacious as I have been with it all - it's quite the legal limbo that I exist in these days 😆 Well it used to be completely infuriating when I was actually trying to run social media advertising campaigns ...these days a find it quite ratifying , borderline numerous - hence my near aversion to bothering with it I do often use the timeline as a kind of public record though - and I've still got a couple of volunteers that pump out a few intermittent memes just to keep the profiles active , but I don't put a lot of stock into yielding actual targeted sales or exposure though ... I tentatively kick out a bit of content just to test the periphery of the limitations , but at charged times it's not worth getting irate about ... Even tik tik now ....I think the American senate has just passed a bill to ' ban ' tik tok though so it will be interesting to hear any observations you have about obvious reduction of certain content in the platform I've kicked out a few little messages to key individuals about Friday and bank holiday weekend though ...and it seems we might get a bit of footfall for the bank holiday , so that's looking positive regardless of limited post reach 🙂
