I barely noticed the blackout. And pretty much every subreddit I use is back up and running.

Blackout had next to zero impact in the short term, and I doubt it will have any lasting impact.

I mean...something like 70% of subs are private at this moment. I deleted my account before the API changes were announced but it's easy to see that most of the subs I used are still private. I'm trying to get a dedicated server running for a game I started playing and the Google searches I've been doing for answers on some of the settings all return a shitlaod of reddit results I can't access.

Your experience is yours, mine is mine, but given the objective fact of how many subs are currently private, I see no reason to think your experience is typical.

Your experience is also my experience.

One should try googling anything with reddit.....most of results will be private.

Man says "I ate lunch, why are people starving?"

More like “man says I ate lunch, some people didn’t eat lunch for a few days, but now most people are back to eating lunch”.

This was Occupy Wall Street all over again. A disorganized mess of a protest with no chance at making a difference.

Occupy Wall Street changed things a lot more than people seem willing to admit. At a minimum it kept the US from going the same "austerity" direction that Europe did around the same time.

My Reddit newsfeed is currently just r/casio, so I've been looking at lots of watches.

Same boat. I try to follow more niche subs and unsubscribed from any of the large ones. I can't notice it from my home page. Popular has been a lot different on the other hand.
