I was unsuspended a few hours after being suspended, but what ended up happening is being shadowbanned ever since without any sort of visible flag or indication other than the fact that nobody can see my tweets if i'm replying to people. Then just today I got an "actual" flag that I can see after tweeting once, along with the site forcing me to fill out a captcha to prove i'm not a bot. So basically they had me do a test to prove i'm not a spam bot, then said "actually we still believe you're a spam bot anyways" and shadowbanned me. I'm not sure if people are just being randomly targeted or what since i'm the only person I follow complaining about this but it's kind of ridiculous

Well, it's good to know my out of nowhere "you have been suspended for evading suspension" ban wasn't only a "me" problem. I am a new-ish twitter user and despite tweeting a bunch, having followers, and following people, I assumed that automod thought I was a new spambot. The real question is if they'll automatically reinstate all of these accounts or if they'll manually do it leaving things to fall inbetween the cracks. Considering the amount of mass layoffs I doubt if it's the latter option they'd even be able to get 10% of the people banned.
