The reddit blackout is even more effectivte than expected! 5177/8829 (~60%) of subreddits are still dark [1] and the posts per minute are down to 1000 from 1400 [2].
This is huge. Subreddits were supposed to be back up yesterday. I personally missed Reddit the first day but now I am super comfortable here.
Glad to have found a new place to hang out!
Edit: Reddit has 100k subs, 60% out of those who officially signed up
Thank you for eloquently putting into words what I’ve been feeling.
The day before the blackout, I was feeling a lot of grief. Reddit had been my “home” for more than a decade, and I thought i would miss the community. Instead, I feel…lighter? Things are much nicer here!
