That was honestly hilarious, they deserve those problems and more.
Let it burn to fucking ash!
I saw a lot of people saying they used bots to rewrite their entire post history to things like “fuck /u/spez”
I’m thinking that amount of comment editing might be quite the spike on the servers.
I did that, but not “fuck u/spez” because that might get the comment deleted altogether making the edit meaningless. Instead I edited to say the comments been deleted in protest against the API changes.
I suppose the protest may have played a role in the site going down but I thought the outage was mostly due to the cloudflare issues from earlier in the day.
Our collective swan song of fuck /u/spez, from Hell’s heart I stab at thee.
