Hopefully I’m posting this in the right place, but I see Reddit developments as Tech news right now.

Wanted to share a website that is tracking Subreddits that have/will be going dark. It even has a sound notification for when they change their status.

    I don’t see myself going back to Reddit if they keep those subs closed down. However I do believe that if this “strike” goes on for longer than a week or so, the admins will forcefully replace each closed subreddit mods to make them live again.

      I hope that if that actually happens they’ll find no volunteers to actually mod those subs and realize they’ll actually have to hire and pay the people that actually makes their site usable

        Sadly there’s always going to be people that will do this just for the feeling of insignificant power they get from moderating a subreddit
