My post was hidden and I'm not sure why

Hi everyone,

I'm writing to ask if anyone has experienced something similar or if I might have accidentally missed a community guideline.

I recently published a post, but noticed that it seems to have been hidden / unlisted (or moderated) shortly after posting.

I double-checked my content and I don't believe it violates any terms—it's standard technical content with no spam, self-promotion, or offensive language.

A few quick questions for the community:

  • Has this happened to you before? Could it be a false positive from an automated spam filter?
  • How long does it usually take for support to review/restore a post after reaching out?

I've already sent a message to DEV support (yo@dev.to), but I wanted to check here in case there's a common trigger I should be aware of for future posts.

Thanks in advance for any insights!
