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!

      100% more nicer. Les toxic and definitely a feeling of humanity. Hard to explain, but the majority of comments over at reddit just don’t feel human. Needed to change in order to realize.
