When all the subs went private for the blackout it caused Reddit to crash. Suggests that it’s a resource-intensive task for their backend.
Edit: this is hypothetical btw

Maybe. When they did “the snap” and banned half of everyone from r/thanosdidnothingwrong they did it slowly to not overload the servers.
Did… Did this really happen?
It was a while ago now but yeah, I do remember that being kind of a big thing.
Yes, in case it isn’t clear it was a reference to the movie Avengers: Infinity War where the main villain Thanos’s goal was to assemble a weapon that allowed him to snap his fingers and kill half of all life in the universe.
Yeah it was clear, it’s just that it never ceases to surprise me what silly stuff the internate can generate
Why did they ban them?
In honour of Thanos wanting to halve the universe’s population, the subreddit banned half of the users that were subbed/active; About ~350k banned from the sub.
