    Or we could fill the whole site with porn and gore as soon Reddit goes public to decrease shareholder value.

    Is the permanent blackout a scheduled thing, or is it because all the apps will go down?

      Scheduled. It will function exactly how it’s functioning right now.

          I think that was related to AWS having issues. Seemed to have happened at the same time.

    considering the doubling down I think the number of communities committing to a perm blackout starting now is increasing as well.

    Please I hope it continues I really love lemmy and jerboa is improving so much so fast these days thanks to accrued interest.

    I know some people here would prefer for things to remain quiet but the potential of the fediverse is really under used let’s grow this place and then fix the new problems that will come.

    Now that we moved off from reddit, can we stop with this sarcastic uppercase lowercase way of writing? I automatically skip any title written like that. It just takes so much cognitive effort to read

      Years of sarcastic tones being lost in text finally gets a solution.

      But I feel ya. That multi-color sentence text thing kills me every time, and I refuse to read them.
