Idk where to ask, so I drop a line there.
Can I get shadowbanned on Lemmy? Seems like my comments are invisible to other people on different instances even if I bait them (like criticizing the Sync client).
The real answer is that Lemmy has an issue currently where cross-posting comments to popular instances like lemmy.world doesn't seem to work. The max retries is hit, the attempt to post it is abandoned, and the user isn't notified. But confusingly, it's still saved to your profile, because that part is stored on this instance, not where you commented.
Until they fix it (which the admin here said they're working on), you should register an account on whatever popular instance you most visit, and use that account to comment.
Thank you for explaining that.
