@DrALJONES @su_liam that would be straight up moderation. Blocking, defederating, etc are not shadow-banning. User-side tools like word filters and silencing or blocking wouldn't fit either even on the loosest definition of a shadow-ban.

The second paragraph of the linked wikipedia page acknowledges the definition I was thinking about as an evolution of the term, and I think it's the one that applies more often on modern social networks. The "algorithm hell" is definitely the most commonly used definition I've seen.

Regardless of the definition you like the most, on the fediverse you can't just get hidden from the masses, without knowing it, for talking about sensitive topics. You can be moderated, but if you don't like your instance or it's defederated you can just migrate to a more visible one.

@DrALJONES well then I have no clue by what do you mean by "shadowbanning" ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

Here's how the fediverse and, by extension, mastodon servers work with each other:

And here your server's rules, which is the hardest policy you can get:
mastodon.social/about

Anything else is conspiracy theories, corrupted mods, or non-activitypub compliant server software.
