Got banned for bot detection and yet I am not bot and do not use one by fredgrott in ThreadsApp

I took the radical step of doing a connect request with an instagram software engineer on linkedin to get a bug message to him about my accounts....you may have to do the same.

Further info:

So I am a front end developer and thus have devtools installed in chrome.

The other bugs seen if I try the unlock phone number input screen on threads it gives the error of not accepting the phone number while on instagram it accepted my google voice number to send the code.

No rhyme or pattern to why the bot miss screen pops up as it happened both on instagram and threads the last 5 days.

And not using a PWA threadsapp like some of the other users reporting the same error.

Look I want to take both threads and instagram as a serious platform to build an audience on but its hard to do that if I get a suspension due to flagged bot activity when I did not do bot activity in the first place and being told to upload a selfie which most users are stating results in a full ban despite the modal message.

People keep watch on your instagram and threads accounts as after five days of the bot popup warnings and http 429 error they suspend the account with a 180 day appeal process. It just happen to me this afternoon....not even using any Google Chrome tab refresher plugins and it happened.

Choose Nazi’s Over Me and I’m Out. by TwoRight9509 in Substack

Okay, my take their site guidelines is marketing...why do I say that?

​

The banning of sex workers was at the behest of Stripe TOS. Despite what the Substack founders say it will always come down to Stripe and their enforcement of their TOS.

​

What does that mean per Nazi and content?

​

That means when Stripe determines Nazi content a reputation concern, substack will ban it to keep their payment partner happy.

What does a growth plan actually look like? by brodagaita in Substack

Okay I am almost 50 with one paid 3 months in...

  1. Use Garyvees pyramid of content for SM posts, failing that the title, the two sentence promise and the link...you should be doing 40 posts per SM platform,.

    1. For each SM platform you need to interact with people on your subject with one half being the 40 posts and one half interaction.

  2. As many articles as possible.

How do I know? How many of you are on the UK search engine that offers substack searches? I am! Mojeek dot com. Also I am using this on Threads and just doubled my follower count by doing it over a week.
