      Had my fifteen year old account permabanned a short while ago because I reported someone for following me from sub to sub to call me slurs and tell me to commit suicide. This was “abusing the report button”, apparently. (I only sent a single report about this person.) Everyone in my household got their accounts nuked as well.

      All new accounts are shadowbanned. Your first comment is visible, and then if you comment too much, they’re all invisible. They don’t become visible again for like a month.

      I had a similar experience, except I posted facts as a refute on some conservative subreddits. I had 2 accounts at the time and upvoted it, and bam, everything of 10 years, gone.
