Hopefully I’m posting this in the right place, but I see Reddit developments as Tech news right now.

Wanted to share a website that is tracking Subreddits that have/will be going dark. It even has a sound notification for when they change their status.

    I guess they use /r/modcoord to find out which subreddits to check. And then use the API or something else to check if the subreddits are private.

      Probably a curl command piped into greping key words, which does use the API yeah
