Mention Lemmy or insult Spez. That way you’ll just be regular banned.

You can be banned for a lot more than just being a dick. And the average user on the platform kind of demonstrates that that’s not really, in and of itself, the primary criteria used to ban people.

Asking in the wron g place
Shadowbans are sitewide and almost always automates actions to counter spam.
Your chances are better if you avoid doing “spam-like” things:
- Using URL shorteners
- Posting links to several subreddits at once
- Using a lot of links in your comments
- All of the above on a fresh account
- etc.
If you are unlucky and caught in a false positive, there is an /appeals form that is usually helpful.
