Interesting, hopefully that’s the case instead of something more… stupid from Reddit. I sincerely hope this is just the community protesting in some way.
u/Spez will just put the blame on Christian again (Apollo’s dev).
But on a little more serious note, I doubt this is on purpose. This would look really bad for the credibility of the platform, there is a LOT of users that just want to keep doomscrolling Reddit and in all honesty don’t give a spez(fuck) about what’s going on with the protests.
But for the majority of the userbase, one thing is to have some of their favorite subreddits joining a protest, the other is having their whole experience affected.
Chances Reddit did this on purpose to hide the content blackout?

I’m 99% sure those are automated, so it really doesn’t say anything.
Doubt it

I know and agree with you on that.

My money is on a DDoS attack. DDoS attacks are 100% going to happen after what Spez pulled.
That’s what I thought first because their infrastructure seems to be shit.
My wife and I were talking about this 2 days ago. She was betting money that we’d see DDoS attacks early Monday.
