Rumors, happenings, and innovations in the technology sphere. If it's technological news, it probably belongs here.

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 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.
