When Russia invaded the Ukraine, and sanctions were initially placed against them and the internet to Russia was cut… Reddit was its old self for about 2 weeks. There were still some random nut bags wondering around saying crazy and hateful shit, but the level of misinformation and everything else dropped by at least 90%. It was pretty eye-opening.
I remember that. Can’t recall the name, but there was one subreddit that was reduced to literally one person/bot posting when the Russian ones went dark.

Do you mean when they banned bots and like 95% of the content on most of the top reddits stopped coming in?
Or did this happen twice?
What weeks? I wanna look on the IA.
If they mean the beginning of invasion, that would be end of February 2022
Very little news on the front page
