My personal guess is it's down on purpose so they can say only 5% of subs who said they would go dark actually did, we just happened to have a service outage that day so they can push their own narrative t investors. Spez doesn't care anymore, he's focused on that IPO payday and to tell with everyone else. He's a liability to the company now, but the board isn't acting.

Here's a site which tracks how many subs have been made private. It's actually crazy that it's up to 93% of them now: https://reddark.untone.uk/

The site is decieving, it's 93% of the ones that committed to going dark. It's not 93% of all subreddits.

If you search for r/news for example, it's nowhere on that page.

And most of the ones that "haven't" have restricted submissions... e.g. no new posts.

I've tried a few listed as public that are actually private. reddit is darker than the report (as they mention)

It's funny that /r/therewasanattempt and /r/whatcouldgowrong are on that list but still public (or public again?)

[wellthisisgreat]

/r/amitheasshole staying public is funny too

Subs that are supposed to go down. This don't list all sub. A own a small sub that is not there, for example.
