Hi @X team, probably a bug! 🙈 (shadowban?) I got this reply, didn't see it in notifications; found it on the post. This user @mishaboar seems shadowbanned. I'm not the first to notice it. Two proofs in the replies 👇🏻👇🏻

Ps: Android user, need to update the app (last update a few days ago) :)
The shadow boar.
And yes I am aware my posts are not exactly a lot of fun: I am not just a boar but also a bore.
But I can guarantee some of my replies are crackling with energy and panache
The weakness of previous generations can be excused by the extreme limitations of access to knowledge. But what excuses the weakness of contemporary humanity?
With BTC halving approaching, there are endlessly optimistic predictions about BTC’s future from the usual suspects and a few new ones.
The market is unpredictable also for BTC, and the halving is a potentially huge change for miners, which will see their rewards halved. So be careful, as things might get shaky.
People always pointed fingers (sometimes with good criticism, many times spreading FUD) at THE meme coin, but it is a matter of fact that Dogecoin’s fixed rewards are a promise of predictability for miners - as long as we keep Dogecoin Core and our network healthy, as long as volatility does not become insane.
There were no seismic changes in Dogecoin since 2021, but substantial ones, and the network is more reliable than it was back then. Doge is one of the few projects in the top 20 with its own decentralized, permissionless blockchain, not created by VCs, not created to make its devs wealthy.
No organization or company or group or person controls or coincides with Dogecoin.
More people are volunteering to contribute. More companies and organizations are building for Doge. The community is getting more educated, with many accounts trying to protect people from scams and excessive speculation. Many are still creating memes, everyday.
And we have a dog in the logo and Comic Sans, which are and will always be crucial features.
Never forget the joke.
This is not an invite to use Dogecoin as a speculative tool, but to be proud of Doge for what it has become without selling out.
As for speculation, my usual advice: all crypto speculation is more akin to slightly educated gambling than to anything else. Be careful and be aware of the risks.
Dear #Dogecoin friends,
Tina is another dog from the Jędrzejewo shelter (Jędrzejewo 104, Jedrzejewo, Poland) in need of urgent adoption.
She is sweet and gentle. Tina needs to find a home before the shelter closes in June.
More information in the thread below.
Thank you!
𝕏Ɖ Is The Resistance 👇
🔥THIS is why Doge and 𝕏 are the Answer to Financial Censorship...💸
The practice of de-banking is a growing scourge: with alarming regularity, Banks are cutting people from essential services for the crime of having the wrong opinions.
As de-banking has worsened, a countervailing force has emerged: 𝕏 is becoming a censorship-free digital bank, and Doge a censorship-resistant form of money.
Let’s take a look at why 𝕏Ɖ is the resistance movement to financial panopticon...
====================
Last Tuesday, I posted a video of Elon saying that 𝕏 will fight financial censorship.
Elon wrote back, “Lot of merit to decentralized control.”
Financial censorship sounds dystopian, but it has become increasingly common in recent years.
2022 was bookended by big public episodes of de-banking: the year started with Canadian banks freezing donations to the Canadian Trucker’s Protest, and ended with JPMorgan Chase booting Ye and his Yeezy brand. We also saw PayPal institute a bizarre policy that allowed it to fine users $2500 for “misinformation.”
This year, Chase shut down the business bank accounts of alternative health practitioner Joseph Mercola, one of the White House’s “Disinformation Dozen.”
Around the same time, British politician and Brexit leader Nigel Farage uncovered evidence that his Coutts bank account was closed because of his political views. Farage launched a petition on his website accountclosed dog org, calling for an inquiry into the practice of de-banking.
We know about these cases of de-banking because they involve public figures. It’s anyone’s guess how prevalent financial censorship is among regular folks who don’t make it onto the radar.
De-banking is spooky because it removes a person’s ability to participate in public life.
Access to banking services is a required for everything from getting a credit card to making purchases like a house/car to running a political campaign.
Big banks have been propped up by taxpayer-funded bailout programs in recent years. They shouldn’t be allowed to shut off an essential service just because they don’t like someone’s opinions.
One of the promises of 𝕏 is that it offers the possibility for a censorship-proof banking system.
Simply by existing as an anti-censorship bank, 𝕏 could discourage de-banking because competitors know they’ll lose customers if they get a bad reputation.
Thinking bigger, 𝕏 could become an entire uncensored economy. The platform’s new branding suggests a limitless digital emporium the likes of which humanity has never seen.
#Dogecoin is an important part of this equation.
Unlike most forms of money, $DOGE doesn’t belong to any one country. Instead, it runs on decentralized nodes across the world.
Dogecoin is as borderless and global as the Internet itself. That multiplicity makes it resistant to censorship.
It’s relatively easy for a few big banks to gang up and de-bank someone. Pulling off the same thing with Dogecoin would require a coordinated effort to shut down Doge nodes everywhere in the world at once.
Dog money isn’t what what most folks have in mind when they imagine fighting Big Brother, but it’s the most entertaining way to oppose dystopian censorship.
Resistance movements sometimes take on a dark quality that comes from fighting long battles with steep odds. Doge benefits from a natural levity that keeps the revolution positive and peaceful.
Dogecoin is at its strongest when it’s in constant circulation.
A likely first step for 𝕏 is to integrate tipping, which would get Doge moving on the platform.
Tipping represents the informal and unconstrained movement of money between people. When given as a gift, money is harder to censor.
Tips brighten everyone’s day. The more folks receive Doge tips, the larger the community becomes.
Over time, as the daily volume of tips grows, people build positive associations with the currency. These good vibes are often expressed through memes, the community’s essential creative activity.
Last Wednesday, Elon revealed that 𝕏 is working on implementing tipping. When tipping goes live, it will take the platform to the next level.
De-banking is a growing scourge in the world. Banks are playing god by deciding who does and doesn’t have the right to get paid.
𝕏 is a counterbalancing force to this destructive practice, holding the promise of a free marketplace of ideas, goods, and services.
To truly break free of Big Brother, the Internet economy needs an alternative form of money with inbuilt protections against censorship.
Doge is the world’s leading decentralized dollar alternative. Tipping is the best way to onboard millions to the Dogeconomy.
As the Doge community swells to millions or even billions of people, it will become impossible for state actors to control, the sum economic activity of its participants greater than any single nation.
For maximum freedom, 𝕏 is the bank. For max fun, Ɖ is the money.
What do you think about the future of 𝕏Ɖ as an anti-censorship bank? Will Elon make it happen?
