Wow that's insane! 86% of subs are private rn according to their stats
That's 86% of the subs that said they would go dark, AFAIK. Not total reddit subs, I think there are something like 20k subs in reddit.
Ohh that makes sense. In hindsight it stands to reason that they have more than 7200 subreddits. Still though, even if 7200 go dark that's a sizable chunk of a redditor's daily consumption. I can only hope that the majority of those will stay private for more than 48h, probably wont do any good but it would at least send a strong message.
hope they go dark indefinitely.
There are over a million subs in reddit and like 140,000 of them are active.
