I’ve heard only the briefest information about what is going on with Reddit. Is the blackout something that is temporarily being done by the community or is it permanent?

    Some mods are permanently or “indefinitely” closing, some are opening their subs back up tomorrow.

    People here are on board with Reddit being over; that’s why many of them have jumped ship to new best friend Lemmy.

    But, like, digg.com still exists. Only time will tell where if anywhere will really become the next place to be, or if Reddit will somehow recover its coolness.

      Yeah, reddit is presently less “over” than twitter, and I still can’t stop seeing dumb-ass tweets in every social media setting I interact with. I think it’s very premature to guess at what’s over. Like, I don’t even know if reddit is completely over for me yet, and I have a long habit of jumping off social media before it dies.
