Hopefully I'm posting this in the right place, but I see Reddit developments as Tech news right now.

Wanted to share a website that is tracking Subreddits that have/will be going dark. It even has a sound notification for when they change their status.

Edit: Adding the stream https://www.twitch.tv/reddark_247

This is great. Some big ones are already dark.

So they use reddit APIs to check the status? They must be very rich

According to their GitHub page (their code is all open source), they pull the data from the r/modcoord sub.

So after June 30th we will not have an idea about the state of things anymore... :P

The notifications contain the wrong amount of members for the subreddit, they all say 5k and below ^^ Not that it really matters, just FYI

Good looking out! I'm not the creator though, just sharing is all.

I’m watching the lights go out in real time here with this site, it’s really cool to see!

[–] Silviecat44@vlemmy.net 5 points 2 years ago

This is amazing

My Reddit frontpage only contains a few minor subs still which are probably without an active moderator and some „going dark“ announcements. Very noticeable.

It does have a pretty big impact on the first day already.

Neat thanks for sharing! I've been looking for something like that!

[–] derived_allegory@beehaw.org 4 points 2 years ago

It appears that r/videos is public again and someone has posted 6h ago. Anyone know what is going on?

[–] crank@beehaw.org 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is there a way to see what subs re dark out of the actual total? This looks like it is what % are dark compared to what % are restricted?

In other words I confused what the n is on all of these

Choose 'percent' on the third card on the left.
