This doesn't work well. I've used other accounts searching for hashtags for recent posts and although that link says the account wasn't shadowbanned, it was wrong.

If you were wondering if you are shadowbanned, try this tool: https://shadowban.azurewebsites.net/

It checks if you appear in all the hashtags.
