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

    Still, 60% of subs still participating is much higher than I had expected.

    It doesn’t surprise me. Never underestimate apathy.

        Apathy, as in they are uncaring about Reddit’s stance or how it affects others, and are only concerned with their own daily shitpost consumption and karma count.
