The front page, ie. /r/all and /r/popular a virtually indistinguishable from the same three days ago. There are memes, news, tik tok videos, sports, etc.

Power users aside, I suspect the typical reddit user's experience is virtually unchanged.

According to the API, reddit post and comment frequency is higher than it was 4 days ago: https://blackout.photon-reddit.com/
