    Perhaps you are right. It just seems suspicious that Reddit views went into rapid decline and then a few days later we get an article about how their views are back to normal.

      I would love to see statistics on OC by account age before the blackout and now.

      Everyone who made reddit what it was is gone. Period.

      Although not conclusive if you do a Google keyword search for “Reddit alternatives” the numbers go stratospheric in the last 2 weeks.

      If people wanting to leave Reddit work normal levels, there wouldn’t have been such a huge spike in searches.
