Shadowbanning absolutely still exists, and it sounds to me like you're shadowbanned. If so it's definitely because you didn't use a new device.Paid Renegade wrote: ↑Mon Dec 05, 2022 6:56 amThe new hinge profile that I created after getting banned is still live, but it hasn’t received a single like after a week. I’m using the same pics as before (which got good results on hinge and still getting good results my other apps) just flipped and superficially edited a bit. Makes me think that something fishy is going on. Even expanded my search radius etc. and still nothing. Will tinker with it some more and see what happens next week. Mind you I’m still using the same iphone but with a different number so maybe that’s a potential cause. Still I thought that shadowbanning wasn’t a thing so I’m not really sure what to think.
One interesting thing though is that when I flipped my pics to try and fool the algorithm I noticed that I didn’t like them as much (I think my face looks weird) but I figured that it was probably just because I was used to seeing them the other way. You guys tell me, is it just me or does the flipped profile pic below look worse?

The mirrored photos look equally good to me, but I have the same thought about my own mirrored photos. It's a pretty wild psychological phenomenon.
For photoshoots, why not cold DM girls on Instagram?
