My Reddit frontpage only contains a few minor subs still which are probably without an active moderator and some „going dark“ announcements. Very noticeable.
I just had a quick look on the front page on mobile browser, not logged in, and the top 2nd, 3rd, and 4th 'hot' posts are about the blackout, and the 'top' post is a thank you from the Apollo app creator.
(This is my first attempt at uploading a pic on here so 🤞)
This is great. Some big ones are already dark.
So they use reddit APIs to check the status? They must be very rich
So after June 30th we will not have an idea about the state of things anymore... :P
According to their GitHub page (their code is all open source), they pull the data from the r/modcoord sub.

Also a good opportunity to back it up everyone with just not visiting their site. I've added 127.0.0.1 reddit.com old.reddit.com www.reddit.com mod.reddit.com i.reddit.com to my hosts file so I don't accidentally follow a link to Reddit (I think they have a lot more subdomains, so the hosts file based approach isn't perfect, but hopefully good enough for a quick solution).

Time to sit back, relax, and watch ~~the world~~ Reddit burn 😎 🍿
R/SquaredCircle just went dark. They weren't even on the list as far as I saw.

I'm really confused by the chart on the site https://blackout.photon-reddit.com/ I understand the dip annotated with the red arrow, but I do not understand the rebound annotated with the green arrow... With that many sites down, it should not be possible to rebound to normal levels...
I could actually see engagement staying relatively the same since most people are probably popping Reddit open for a few minutes, maybe engaging, then moving on.
What I do find odd is how consistent Posts per minute are over time. But it doesn't dip or rise with comments. So now I'm wondering how automated a lot of posting is.
Bots, all the bot posts. If you even check "All" for a bit even on Lemmy you will see the bots are moving here as well.
If you go to the site and view by new it's just page after page of /r/askreddit. Tons of people posting to it with nowhere else to post. So that would explain some of the rebound but the graph is still odd that it rebounded to exactly where it should be if there was no blackout.

I was looking for something like this, thanks for sharing!
Reddit itself seems to be completely down for me. I wonder if this is drawing a lot of attention and just overloading them, or tinfoil hat, they’re shutting off the servers to hide all the blackouts…

This is awesome. We all need to stick together on this one
This is amazing
Is there a way to see what subs re dark out of the actual total? This looks like it is what % are dark compared to what % are restricted?
In other words I confused what the n is on all of these

So one thing I've noticed is that /r/videos is still labelled as "public" - I wonder if there's a way to show subreddits that have restricted new posts as well? (Maybe I'm missing the point here)
It appears that r/videos is public again and someone has posted 6h ago. Anyone know what is going on?
Check for r/argentina, could not find it but it will be dark temporarily, maybe it's because of that. Great site!
The notifications contain the wrong amount of members for the subreddit, they all say 5k and below ^^ Not that it really matters, just FYI
