How can we tell if the creator shadowbanned or if YT did it? Sometimes my comments are hidden within seconds, and it’s possible the creator is that fast, but I also suspect key word based filtering.
Comment on YSK that YouTube shadow bans people (for a time) + implications to creators

This was a hard post to read.
You’re not shadowbanned from YouTube. The creator you’re commenting on has simply “hid” you from their channel. Which ironically is a shadowban, just on a creator level.
The level of panic and outrage you’ve displayed here despite not having a clue as to how the mechanic you’re discussing works is remarkable.

If your post is hidden within seconds, it’s automod getting it most likely. Being hid from a channel by the creator means your comment just never shows up, even in their notification feed.

That’s incorrect. Here is a decent video explaining it yewtu.be/watch?v=48ObNiT_hpM

That has absolutely nothing to do with what I’ve just described.
Again, this isn’t YouTube removing his comments. His comments are not beinf deleted. OP was simply “hid from channel”. I don’t know how else I can explain this, short of recording a video of my YouTube channel as I shadowban a commenter.
YouTube does delete comments. But this isn’t that.

Again, you are mistaken. There are plenty of evidence where co-hosts can’t see comments on their own channels made from personal accounts even though comments are visible when they look from that personal account. So unless you are claiming that co-hosts shadowing banning each other and then unbanning when they go back to check then you are wrong.

What you’re talking about has absolutely nothing to do with any of the points I’ve made.
