Why Use a Reddit Shadowban Checker?

Reddit Shadowban Signs: How to Know If You're Affected

Wondering "am I shadowbanned on Reddit?" Here are the most common Reddit shadowban signs that indicate your account may be affected. If you recognize several of these symptoms, use our free Reddit shadowban checker above to confirm.

📉

Posts Get Zero Engagement

Your posts receive no upvotes, downvotes, or comments - even in active subreddits. It's like you're posting into a void.

💬

Comments Are Never Replied To

You leave comments on threads but nobody ever responds or acknowledges them, even when asking direct questions.

🚫

Profile Shows "Page Not Found"

When you log out and visit your profile (reddit.com/u/yourusername), you see "page not found" or the profile doesn't load.

🔍

Posts Don't Appear in New

After posting in a subreddit, your post doesn't appear in the "new" feed - even immediately after submitting.

⚠

No Notification of Ban

Unlike regular bans that notify you, shadowbans are silent. You receive no message or indication that anything is wrong.

👤

Karma Stops Changing

Your karma score remains completely static despite regular activity, because nobody can see (or vote on) your content.

How to Fix a Reddit Shadowban

If our shadowban checker confirms you're shadowbanned, don't panic - here's how to recover your account's visibility and get back to normal.

Review Your Activity

Check your recent posts and comments for anything that might have triggered Reddit's spam filters. Common causes include vote manipulation, excessive self-promotion, ban evasion, or bot-like behavior.

Take a Break

Stop posting, commenting, and voting for 24-48 hours. This gives Reddit's system time to reassess your account and can help clear temporary restrictions faster.

Start Fresh with Quality Content

When you return, focus on genuine engagement. Post original content, participate authentically in discussions, and avoid any behavior that looks automated or spam-like.

How long does a Reddit shadowban last? Reddit shadowbans can last indefinitely if not addressed. Taking corrective action and maintaining genuine engagement can help restore your account's standing over time. Check our FAQ below for more detailed recovery options.

Frequently Asked Questions About Reddit Shadowbans

Get answers to the most common questions about Reddit shadowbans, how to check if you're shadowbanned, and how to fix it.

Yes, Reddit shadowbans are real and officially acknowledged by Reddit. When shadowbanned, your posts, comments, and profile become invisible to all other users while appearing normal to you. Reddit uses shadowbans primarily to combat spam and bot accounts. The official term Reddit uses is "shadowban" in their admin tools.

Reddit shadowbans are permanent until lifted by an admin. Unlike temporary suspensions that expire, a shadowban will stay on your account indefinitely. The only way to remove it is to successfully appeal through reddit.com/appeals. Some users report getting unbanned within 24 hours of appealing, while others wait days or weeks.

Several behaviors can trigger a Reddit shadowban: Spam - posting the same content repeatedly or excessive self-promotion. Vote manipulation - using multiple accounts to upvote your own content. Ban evasion - creating new accounts to bypass subreddit bans. Bot-like behavior - rapid posting or commenting that triggers anti-spam filters. New account activity - being overly active on a brand new account.

The easiest way to check if you're shadowbanned on Reddit is to use our free checker above. You can also manually check by: 1) Logging out and visiting your profile at reddit.com/u/yourusername - if it says "page not found" you're shadowbanned, 2) Posting in r/ShadowBan where a bot will confirm your status, or 3) Checking your posts from an incognito browser to see if they appear publicly.

To appeal a Reddit shadowban, visit reddit.com/appeals and submit a request. Be honest and polite in your appeal. Explain that you weren't aware you violated any rules (if true) and ask for a second chance. Include your username and mention you'd like your shadowban reviewed. Many users successfully get unbanned through this process, especially if it's their first offense.

Subreddit moderators cannot shadowban you - only Reddit admins can. However, moderators can use AutoModerator to automatically remove your posts and comments from their specific subreddit, which creates a similar effect. This is sometimes called a "soft ban" or "quiet ban." The difference is that a real shadowban affects your account site-wide, while mod actions only affect specific subreddits.

If your posts are being removed, it might not be a shadowban. Common reasons include: AutoModerator rules - many subreddits filter new accounts or specific keywords. Karma requirements - some subreddits require minimum karma to post. Rule violations - breaking subreddit-specific rules. Spam filter - Reddit's automatic filter catching your content. Use our checker to determine if you're actually shadowbanned, or if it's a subreddit-specific issue.

Creating a new account to evade a shadowban is against Reddit rules and can result in your new account being banned as well. Reddit tracks IP addresses and device fingerprints. If caught, you could face a permanent site-wide ban. The recommended approach is to appeal your shadowban through official channels. If your appeal is denied, you may need to use a completely different network and device for a new account.

Yes, Bulkoid's Reddit shadowban checker is 100% free to use. There are no hidden fees, no required sign-ups, and no limits on how many times you can check your account. We created this tool to help Reddit users understand their account status without any cost. You can check your shadowban status anytime to monitor your account health.

A shadowban makes your content invisible to others while you can still use Reddit normally - you won't know unless you check. A suspension is an official ban where Reddit notifies you, and you're locked out of your account. Suspensions can be temporary (days to weeks) or permanent. Shadowbans are technically permanent but can be appealed. Suspensions are visible to you; shadowbans are hidden.
