    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

    • etc.

    If you are unlucky and caught in a false positive, there is an /appeals form that is usually helpful.
