There's no #shadowbanning on Mastodon.
There are just server admins limiting your visibility through multiple methods because someone else on your server who you've probably never even heard of violated some policy you didn't know about on some other server that you've also never heard of, and their admin decided to mute or defederate your server, all of which you probably don't have any practical way of finding out about.
But shadowbanning? No. That's a twitter thing. We don't do that here.
