    I think you got downvoted because people were not looking for a way to make it ok for the racist instances to stay on join-lemmy.

    I am not really familiar with shadowbannig, but users could just check their posts from another instance and find out about the ban.

      Thank you for replying!

      That wouldn’t be the point, but I don’t believe anyone cares to hear the details. No problem, I understand that.

      Neither was I, of course. Thank you for this peek into the mentality.
