There’s no shadow bans. It’s possible that you’re interacting with an instance that has defederated from your home instance or vice versa. You won’t be told this. Everything just appears empty. Same if you’re banned from a community/instance. You won’t be told this unless the moderators message you.
What’s the instance and community you’re having problems with and I’ll tell you what’s going on. You would know you were banned by viewing your profile on that instance. You can find reasons in the modlog too if they added any.
Good mods/admins send a message along with their banning/removals. If you add /u/GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip to the end of any Lemmy domain you can see your profile on that instance. Scroll down, tap modlog and search for your name if you want a timeframe/reason.
I’m using Jerboa and I sometimes see symbols next to peoples’ username. One looks like a “no message” symbol, and the other looks like a “no person” symbol in red. What do they mean? Are there more symbols?...
Why are apps like Fairemail, Voyager, etc. updated so often? Why don’t they collect the changes and release them once a month or something like that?...
Some apps are a community effort with multiple contributors. Voyager is one of those. This may have been better asked in no stupid questions. Why would you not want the latest bug fixes and features immediately after they’ve been approved?
On version 0.19 you can block instances so that you don’t see any posts from that instance, instead of having to block communities one by one, you still see comments from users of that instance in other posts so it isn’t completely blocking the instance.

I noticed that some instances seem to sort of shadowban users from what I presume is any instance not on a whitelist....
