This is a cool website for tracking the blackout as it happens.

I made a conscious decision to stop using reddit yesterday. I’ll delete my account next weekend.
I was wasting a lot of time endlessly scrolling through AITA and similar subreddits. Going to make sure I selectively subscribe to lemmy communities and treat it like a news aggregator.

A user boycott is a good idea. I’m doing that too.
I’ll be doing the same. I’m still getting used to Lemmy, but it seems like a pretty good alternative so far. Smaller and more confusing (initially) perhaps. But it’s better than me sticking with spending too much time on Reddit.
I wonder how many others have been trying to break that reddit addiction and just needed a reason, and an alternative that isn’t so bad.
So…Lemmy can be my vaping
I was wondering how we would fare as our Monday is now. Glad the subs are dark. Screw companies. Getting screwed on every single front.
wow over 5000 dark as of now: 4 pm NZT, 12am Eastern Standard Time (EST)
At 23:55 12 June NZST, 6552/7265 subreddits are currently dark. That’s 90.2% dark.
Great wee website. I thought it wasn’t working, but it was indexing or refreshing …lots!
Fortunately /r/CK is still around. If /r/NZ does something you can count on them to do the opposite.
Fits with their pointlessly contrarian attitude in general.
Daaaamn, that’s a massive chunk of the site gone dark, and there’s a few that won’t be back. r/notjustbikes has pulled the plug once and for all, for example.
I have low hopes for this protest to drive enough users offsite. Things seem different on the internet compared to back in 2010 when Digg collapsed.
Sup!
