Unfortunately can’t help you there as this one was in bloom when I got it :)

Has yours grown additional side growths? As far as I understand each fan of leaves only blooms once, then the side growths have to mature and those will each bloom once and so on.

I definitely agree with you! It’s neat to have alternatives available. So far I feel that comments are higher quality here. So even if reddit goes on, I can enjoy the interaction here.

I hadn’t heard of that rule before, that’s an interesting idea! It would be cool to find out if the generation of new posts and comments has declined at a greater rate than the number of views.

The article says that page views dropped by 6.6% from the day before the blackout to the second day of the blackout. Those numbers seem quite small to me and sobering about the impact of the blackout. At the peak of the blackout, views were only down 7%? I would imagine that views are recovering as more and more subreddits are being forced back open. That doesn’t seem like it will have a big impact on reddit long-term!

To be clear, I’m not happy about it or saying this to defend reddit! It’s just my takeaway from the article. Maybe someone more familiar with these metrics can explain that 7% is actually a really big and significant impact?
