I wonder if it's bots or something trying to access the now dark subreddits. Essentially causing a DDOS.
well if i made a bot, hmm, yeah that could cause it lol. Like if i tell it "go in every 30 minutes & steal the top 20 posts", and it's down, i'd just say "retry till u get it, idc if u DoS that shit" and well if many ppl do it, it's a free DDoS courtesy of robotland
I bet thats whats happening.
if that's what's happening, i feel a sense of fellowship for those ppl who don't give a shit and will ddos a website just to try and steal some memes, truly conoisseurs of ๐ ฑ๏ธest ๐ ฑ๏ธractices ๐
