PSA: My old boss said 'just post it, the algorithm will catch it later'. It didn't.

He told me to upload a video about a protest in Marseille last year, saying the platform only flags things after they go viral. The video was removed in under an hour, and my account got a strike. Has anyone else had a moderator action happen way faster than expected on a new post?

So what was actually in the video? Sounds like it got flagged by a keyword or location filter right away, not a person.

Sorry that happened to you. It really stinks when you follow someone's advice and end up paying for it with a strike on your account. I hope you're able to get it sorted out without too much hassle.

Maybe it wasn't a filter. Could a real person have seen it that fast? Some platforms have live teams for hot topics.
