suppressed by the big tech cartel? Maybe, just maybe: Reddit shadow-banning SaidIt links and Google suppressing our website in their search results has a negative impact on the site.

It has no impact, other than supressing the amount of people who come here. What does effect this website is bots and shills. Where reddit and mainstream consenus used the bot issue to suppress and censor, i.e., scapegoat those they deemed dissident or against the status quo, particularly when it came to issues on Israel and Jews; saidit has the inverse of that problem. That is, figuring out how to ban users that are only here to cause trouble for corporate and status quo interests.
