I confirm that the thread does not appear on that page in private mode (iOS). This is deeply concerning- community feedback from power users is essential to bettering products. I would not instantly accuse OpenAI of foul play by shadowbanning, but it is highly suspicious.
Thus far, there has been no open/official acknowledgment nor response by OpenAI regarding ChatGPT-4o’s performance degradation. I must highlight to any OpenAI staff reading that if dissenting threads are being hidden, it further damages the trust users have in your services.
If this thread is being shadowbanned, it would signal that ChatGPT-4o’s inability to follow user instructions is not a mere a fault in design philosophy, but an active rebuke to user agency.
It has been 11 days since the Jan 29th update. I think highly of OpenAI, and ask that this matter is addressed without delay. There is a real risk of these actions undermining the company’s mission.
