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 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

Probably won’t matter much when critical mod tools suddenly stop working.

Or at the very least the volunteers do the same thing. We need volunteers to keep the strike going lol!
