There are 1,820 Subreddits gone dark and counting, as of this post. Thought others might get a kick out of this; it’s kinda wild watching them go one by one. Really interested to see what this looks like tomorrow.
Here’s the website if you want to see the updates live without the twitch stream: https://reddark.untone.uk
Thanks! That chat stream hurt my eyes. Just hit 2500.
About 15 minutes to go for the ‘Official’ start and it’s already over 2100.
Yowsers Redddit, you dun goofed!
Super impressed with the initiative. Let’s see how spez reacts to it
My expectation is that if any of the higher traffic subs hold the line for more than a few days, the greedy little pig boy will replace the mods with loyalists and force them open.
I’m honestly grateful in a way. It’s forced me to look very seriously at the fediverse apps such as Lemmy and I’m really liking the model more than putting all of our eggs in one basket.
Agreed. As much as I am saddened to lose out on some of the communities from reddit, I think this is the right direction. In time the communities will come back together and we will have been better off decentralizing.
This is great, thank you for the info and evening entertainment.
Those subs are going down faster than spez’s credibility
2102/6001 so far.
RIP /r/IllegallySmolCats.
We really need an instance that only has communities made from the cat subs
At 2044 now but bi_irl having trouble deciding
As is tradition
