The Problem
Website owners and SEO practitioners are experiencing sudden, severe drops in Google search impressions and clicks—often 60-90%—following algorithm updates. They struggle to diagnose whether the cause is a core update penalty, technical SEO regression, or content quality issue, and waste weeks trying random fixes without understanding the root cause.

From 30k to 2k impressions overnight - did I get shadow banned?
Hey all, I launched my site about 4 weeks ago, and Google search impressions/clicks steadily rose to around 30k/300+ a day. All of a sudden, my traffic dropped off a cliff. From 30k impressions down to 2000 or less. Today it seems even worse. This is verified through looking at google search analytics and the realtime view. Users went from 300-400 per day to a couple dozen. Search was the primary driver of traffic and fastest growing. What happened? Did my site get shadow banned or something? I have no manual actions, everything looks fine. I think all my pages are still indexed, am I just getting buried in the results or not shown at all anymore?

Proton, not content with deleting every criticism against their lack of a Linux drive app on their sub, now resorts to shadowbanning users who do so even comments unrelated to Linux are not visible to anyone else. How can anyone trust a company that behaves like that?
Happened to me and happened to one of my friends who's also made the switch to Linux. Posts complaining about it get taken down for the "low effort" rule even if they're paragraphs long and full of detail. After lots of comments I was making trying to help users or discuss things unrelated to the Linux app all died on the vine even in posts with very few comments, my buddy and I discovered we can't see each other's top level comments anymore to any post within the subreddit. Is this a trustworthy company if they go around purposefully stifling criticism AND resort to shady tactics like shadow bans?
