To know if someone has restricted your account, observe your interaction with their profile. Key indicators include the inability to see their online status or read receipts in direct messages, and your comments on their posts not being visible to others. Remember, these signs could also be due to other privacy settings or network issues, so it's *not always conclusive* evidence of being restricted.
