You can see why he is worried 4503 subs are still dark atm. https://www.twitch.tv/reddark_247 He broke reddit. If he strongarms this people will just walk away (more than what is happening now).
I am not sure why people link to twitch instead of the source. https://reddark.untone.uk
For me, that source redirects to that twitch stream.
It's the same people running it. It's just that the original site for overloaded. So they swapped to twitch to live stream the data
They're actually not redirecting now as traffic has subsided. But as I remember, they added a 301 permanent redirect instead of 302 and I immediately thought that's a bad idea. Probably that's why you're still getting redirected to the stream.
Ah gotcha. Might have to clear some DNS caches
Redirects are usually cached on the browser, so you can just clear the site's cache.
Oh crap, of course. I'm being an idiot! It's a status code
Maybe same reason why I link people to Reddit posts instead of the article.
I use https://reddark.nextflow.cloud/
I think he didn't even consider that he may have jumped the shark on messaging, which is insane given the content of that messaging
