    I went back to post on the “We’re back from the Blackout” posts to go let them know about the new communities that were started up.

      I did that for a few that I’m interested in and got downvoted immediately. There’s definitely some bot like activity trying to flood content/organic growth on the communities polling/figuring out what’s next, so that users would flock back. They are also pushing back on alternatives when a good ol person would be just curious/happy/relieved that there’s some semblance of carry-over away from Reddit.
