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.

It still looks pretty bad (in a good way): https://reddark.untone.uk/

Almost 7,000 subs private, including many of the biggest ones. This is by no means letting up.

It will be interesting to see where things stand in a few days and whether it’s causing ongoing pain to Reddit. I doubt they will comment until and if there’s a risk of ongoing, widespread blackouts.

True but I see the number of closed subreddits getting lower each time I look at that page.

[–] towerful@beehaw.org 20 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I think a lot of them are either going to be support subs (like stopdrinking), or they will be subs asking their users what they should do.
The modcoord subreddit is full of support for continued protest

Yep, we opened up, polled the users, got told to keep it closed, and down went the shutters.

I see major subs like /r/gaming, /r/todayilearned/, /r/space opening up but they're not asking their users what to do :(

Between this comment and my last at least 25 subs have opened up again. Even while typing this one opened up.

Huh? Last I checked r/gaming was asking for user feedback on whether they should remain closed and the comments look like a resounding "yes".

Interesting that the "best" algorithm is favoring a comment from 3 hours ago with 8 upvotes in of staying open vs one from 4 hour ago with 200 upvotes in favor of staying closed. That's absolutely not how the "best" algorithm used to work

Still open tho

Has that been confirmed yet? I saw one person saying it was happening, but the comments below proved they were wrong, and then they scratched out their comment and apologized for spreading false info.

I saw another post with screenshots

You mean this one right? https://famichiki.jp/@Tsutsuku/110537730270070245

Reddit's CEO is a vile PoS

Would be great if more of those communities moved to the fediverse :')

[–] LUHG_HANI@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

They are either coming or we'll have to create them. I see no way forward with Reddit. Anyone who's for Reddit deserves to stay in that cess pit run by spez now. Bridges have been burnt.

Oh my, I expected a few thousand to go up after an hour or two but a few big ones are even still down this is great :D
