Gonna bring a microwave and popcorn to my job site on Monday. Comedy doesn't get much better than this.

Don't forget all the candy flavors. Also should i bring ice cream?

I predict the Reddit HQ will collapse from the inside coming days. Who brings the fireworks?!

No, money grubbing Steve Huffman broke reddit.

Meanwhile, Aaron Swartz is turning in his grave so much you could probably hook him up to a generator and solve all the world's energy problems. I think he'd like lemmy, though.

I broke reddit not once, not twice, but three times today.

I've been seeing this a lot the past couple of days. Anyone know why it's happening so much?

I've gotten it a few times, but today was the max point. I am guessing the api news is bringing reddit's capacity over the edge? That's just a guess though.

Yesterday I tried to use the Power Delete Suite to edit all my comments and self posts to F U u/spez on my 12 year old account. It failed and also resulted in me getting banned from a couple subreddits due to spam. Then I gave up and just deleted my entire comment and post history using the same script.

A lot of people might be doing something similar, which would spike the requests on their servers quite a bit.
