Are the reddit admins incompetent or are they also joining the protest? Place your bets here!
EDIT: Looks like they’re back.
So, Reddit is basically participating, in the black-out. Nice.
I honestly wonder if it’s an attempt to hide all the privated subs and the messages they have on their private page. Now instead of seeing what’s going on its just “oh guess reddit down”
If there is no Reddit, there is no statistic on how severe the user drop is due to the subs that went private. That’s probably better for the IPO.
Honestly seems pretty likely, it’s got to be pretty bad press for them with so many subs going private.
The pretty bad press is already there. Some dude told me it’s on BBC, for example.
For me it doesn’t work too. Neither via Apollo nor via website. Haha.
They want to avoid having statistics how far it went down after the blackout. For the IPO, I bet.
I really don’t think they’re that smart honestly. Nonetheless it is hella suspicious…
Yes, this is really suspicious.
They couldn’t handle the lack of traffic.
Oh shit I might have broken the website. For the blackout, I put Reddit on my PiHole DNS blacklist, so it’s not loading by accident when clicking some links or bookmarks.
And now on https://reddit.statuspage.io it says:
