That's because America has woken up. Given that the blackout was planned for 2 days I'm actually quite encouraged that there are still 6500 after then. Even many of the ones that have opened have opened pending further discussion on the next steps. I'm not optimistic about the overall outcome for Reddit, but the more people that can be driven to alternatives the better.
True, and I'm not! I deleted all my shit and I'm not going to post there anymore. I might read a Reddit post if it comes up when I Google something (because there still is a lot of good information on Reddit that can't be found anywhere else) but I'm not contributing. It's a shame though, I really liked giving away spare game keys etc. on Reddit.
