Name a topic or idea that social media companies "censored" or suppressed that was both true and useful.
Trouble is, we don't know. Lots of people & keywords may be shadowbanned & downranked by social media algorithms, but we're not allowed to know which ones. The censorship is proprietary rather than public.

Exactly. We have no idea how many tweets get 500 RT’s instead of 10K bc we don’t see them. I’m more concerned about that manipulation than the blatant stuff.

We also don't know if it matters. Feels to me as if all conservatives eventually hear all conservative facts/rumors/fake news. Seems as though the "virus" quality of ideas makes the strong ones (even fake news strong ones) get through no matter how much throttling happens.

I know people get throttled. What I wonder is whether any “good” ideas or facts were successfully kept from the public.

If something was successfully kept from us how would we know?
