bugSomething isn't workingSomething isn't working
Description
Title. Never did anything wrong on Twitter besides using Old Tweetdeck, so I'm pretty sure that's what got me banned. I had that account since 2013, fought hard to climb to 1000 followers, and I'm so sad that I lost it like this. I sent an appeal of course, but I don't think anything will come out of it. 😢
Edit:
It seems like my account got unbanned roughly 24hs after the ban happened. 😮 I didn't receive a reply to my appeal and the app still told me that my account got suspended at first, but after dismissing that notification, everything was just there and worked just fine. :)

Yeah. Something with Twitter happened where they decided to catch on and ban anyone who uses OldTweetDeck. Goodluck to the appeal, I'm not even sure if it'll work.

Happened to my accounts too, sent an appeal, really hope this isn't the end 😔
sephiroth1204 commentedon Nov 6, 2025
All my accounts got suspended too, even the ones I wasn't logged into currently

I also had most of my accounts suspended, but the accounts with X Premium subscriptions that use X Pro have not been suspended.🥺
So it might be that accounts using the X Pro API for free are the ones getting suspended.

Just happened to me also. I had the account for 15 years. But they will allow all of those bots and foreign actors to reign supreme.
heidikimmc commentedon Nov 6, 2025
Me too :( lost all of my 3 accounts. Anybody succeeded from filing an appeal?
TopoR commentedon Nov 6, 2025
Yes, mine too. My only account, which I’ve used for 16 years...
kotozuki commentedon Nov 6, 2025
Mine too, lost two accounts :/ both I've had for years. What did people put in the "reasoning" section of the appeal?
suyanonono commentedon Nov 6, 2025
Mine too, but the account that doesn’t use OldTweetDeck hasn’t been banned (so far).

most of the accounts I had have been suspended.
I still have a few that aren’t suspended yet — the ones linked to OldTweetDeck — but I’m sure it’s only a matter of time.
has anyone actually managed to get their suspension lifted after submitting an appeal?
Nocturne-935 commentedon Nov 6, 2025
Adding on with everyone, all of my accounts were suspended and they were all tied to OldTweetDeck as well.
I made my appeal talking about how I never broke any of the major rules listed in the "inauthentic account usage" page and how I haven't been "purposefully using any Third Party Apps" that are malicious or break any of the other rules.
Maybe it'll work, but only time will tell.
I've had some of those accounts for over 10 years now.
Edit: I was not using the "Enable rate limit bypass (OldTweetDeck)" option, if that matters to anyone.

Another here... The one account but had for 17+ years... mainly used it now to follow accounts/lists that hadnt migrated to other SM and rarely posted/active, but given how bad the place had turned into prob better just moving on and leaving anyway...
But anyone who does manage to have any success with appeals keep us updated and let us know, might try, otherwise not sure its worth the energy appealing

"My account was wrongfully suspended. To my best knowledge, I did not knowingly engage in any inauthentic behaviors from this account. I did not knowingly or willingly engage in content spam, and did not share or post content in a bulk, duplicative, irrelevant or unsolicited manner that disrupts people's experience."
Found a Reddit post from a month ago of someone claiming they got their account back within 24 hours; all they stated in their appeal was “this account was mistakenly suspended”.
Rezulux commentedon Nov 6, 2025
Both my accounts that were logged in have been suspended, my third account that I had not touched in a while (but have logged in with OTD at least once a while ago) seems to still be active.

My account seems to have been unsuspended after sending an appeal, but I can't actually view tweets from accounts I am following, it just gives me

Account now back. Anyone know how you can export a list of people you follow on twitter?
mkenyadaiima-crypto commentedon Nov 8, 2025

You just need to wait more, it happened to me today and after a few hours all features became available.
AT-4 commentedon Nov 8, 2025
Anyone daring to go back to using OTD? The updated version anyway. Only asking because I would've assumed they would have kept us banned if they thought we were in the wrong with it?
belactt commentedon Nov 8, 2025
I've been using the latest version just to view tweets for a day since I got my account back, and nothing’s happened so far.
fREAST commentedon Nov 8, 2025
Same here, been using OTD all day today, I did however remove my search columns and replaced them with list columns instead.
Another interesting thing I noticed is that on the normal x.com site, for example when I try to open any tweet, I'm getting the usual "Sorry, you are rate limited. Please wait a few moments then try again.", however, OTD is still working and both the Home feed and all the List feeds are still loading new tweets.
Bradshort commentedon Nov 8, 2025
Using latest OTD with a new Burner account and moved all my follows over (Manually!!) and followed my lists. Working fine so far 3 hrs in . .
snowbound commentedon Nov 8, 2025
I am currently using X via their own web UI. I have no idea if using OTD is automatically putting a target on our backs. I have received no explanation, nor do I expect one from X on why the suspensions occurred.
AriRV41 commentedon Nov 8, 2025
Until it happens, it's binary, it works until you get banned again without any warning.
snowbound commentedon Nov 8, 2025
Yup and next time it may be permanent.
james-murphy-dev commentedon Nov 11, 2025
I accidentally opened tweetdeck and left it running on my desktop for a while. It seems to have caused my account to be rate-limited on the twitter website only. I can still refresh the timeline through the mobile app and tweetdeck. I was not banned again.
uncertaintyny commentedon Nov 11, 2025
In settings did you have "Enable rate limit bypass" ? thx
