This is routine housekeeping, <strong>not</strong> a punishment, and <strong>nothing has been deleted</strong>. Getting it back takes one short email.</p> <h2 id="what-limited-means">What &ldquo;limited&rdquo; means <a class="heading-anchor" href="#what-limited-means" aria-hidden="true">#</a></h2> <p>A limited (also called <em>silenced</em>) account is <strong>not deleted and not banned</strong>. Your posts, follows, and data are all still there. While the limit is in place, your account is just held back from public and federated timelines so a parked, forgotten account can&rsquo;t quietly be used for spam. It&rsquo;s fully reversible.</p>https://welcome.yttrx.com/posts/account-limited/Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000https://welcome.yttrx.com/posts/account-limited/<p>If you&rsquo;ve landed here, your yttrx account may have been <strong>automatically limited</strong> while a moderator reviews it. This page explains what that means, why it happens, and how to appeal. <strong>If this was a mistake, it&rsquo;s quick to undo — just email us.</strong></p> <h2 id="what-limited-means">What &ldquo;limited&rdquo; means <a class="heading-anchor" href="#what-limited-means" aria-hidden="true">#</a></h2> <p>A limited (also called <em>silenced</em>) account is <strong>not deleted</strong>. You can still log in and post, but while the limit is in place your posts and profile are held back from public and federated timelines, so they reach fewer people. It&rsquo;s a reversible, temporary measure — not a ban.</p>https://welcome.yttrx.com/posts/welcome-to-yttrx/Tue, 16 Jun 2026 09:00:00 -0700https://welcome.yttrx.com/posts/welcome-to-yttrx/<p><a href="https://yttrx.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener" >yttrx</a> is a <a href="https://joinmastodon.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener" >Mastodon</a> community server for English-speaking users, run out of Canada and the USA.

Nothing is trying to keep you scrolling. That&rsquo;s great once you&rsquo;re set up, but it does mean the first day is on you: you have to go find a few people and topics worth following. The good news is it doesn&rsquo;t take long, and the rest of this page walks you through it.</p>
