@GaryMarcus @MattPainte I can share a white paper if you like but essentially it’s the model for in-network posts served up to a user based on the likelihood that it would be relevant to them. You aren’t directly “punished” but because historical interaction values are decayed over time for obvious…

@KettlebellDan @MattPainte what does a “real graph” mean — and why would you punish someone for taking a break?

@GaryMarcus @MattPainte One factor to consider is that when you reduced your usage on the app for a bit you likely hurt your real graph in the logistic regression model with users that followed you

Now 95% sure I have been shadowbanned, too many tweets with lots of likes and engagement and RTs simply aren’t getting that many views, maybe 10% of what they used to.

So much for free speech around here.
