It's a bad site and it's bad for me, but it's a pretty critical part of the infrastructure. It's how people get news, alerts, it's how entire social circles connect. This is like I-95 shutting down.
@ToddInTheShadows yeah I 100% agree. It's also just a ton of information and history that is being lost. Same with Reddit - I didn't even *use* that site, but there's a ton of info there that just does not exist elsewhere on the internet
