Reddit broke today: Looks like it doesn't like dark subs

Just logged into reddit, from Canada, it's not working correctly. I suspect so many subs going dark have unveiled a bug that has broken some algorithms. Here's hoping they are a pain to fix and require a significant reengineering effort. Anyone confirm the same behavior?
If it is deliberate, I'm pretty sure that'd be a call-our-bluff sort of situation and they'd end up with a longer blackout as a result, at least until the majority of participating mods are replaced/banned.
I'd assumed a minor reverse-reddit-hug, personally - there are a lot of news stories on this today with a lot of links to reddit. Either way, a day in and I'm here and kinda loving it, despite it being a bit ... wonky on posting today with all us refugees.
