A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

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.

Does anybody know what is Reddit's userbase size? It's difficult to put some of the numbers in https://reddark.untone.uk/ in perspective. Using percentages on the Combined User Count would be more descriptive, for instance.

reddit has something like over 2 million subreddits, but usually claims around 120,000 active subreddits.

As sad as it is to admit, 6000 subreddits is a drop in the fucking bucket.

There's some pretty big subreddits going down though, /r/tifu just went private and it has 10mil+ subs.

I’ve noticed “ELI5” also is on the list… that’s a huge one!
