Figured it out!

Posts that don’t have a suppressed tag aren’t getting shadowbanned.

Explicit-flagged posts are being moved to the tops of our blogs.

I scrolled back past my flagged posts, and every untagged post I’d made was right there.

So… even by @staff’s own goals this is a dismal failure that is actually serving to expose more people to explicit content than otherwise would be.

Yeah.

(Note: Posts tagged with any variant of the word p/u/r/g/e still seem to be getting banned.)

Whoa, that is some universe-brain nonsense. But it seems to be accurate that the disappearing posts are in fact appearing when you scroll past others.

I’m not sure this actually has to do with explicit flagging, though. When I go to my blog, the original of a post (the one where I’ve been talking with @queeranarchism) appears on the front page, while the reblogs of it are buried beneath. None of them look flagged and if the original was flagged, you’d think the reblogs would be too…

Also, this doesn’t quite explain why buried posts can’t be called up by following the usual links to them on the app.

But in any case, there they are.

I have that problem, but also every post that I made past 7:00 last night is not showing up on the blog, even past the flagged images. And I’m super confused right now.
