Is there any reason why people think this? Said more in-depth in another comment, but I think the influx happened weeks ago with possibly more people on a wider time-scale or because of some other factors.
Who would wait to join until the last day and why would they? It's not like they need to delete their old account before signing up here.
It's because very suddenly, users of RIF and Apollo are going to be locked out of Reddit, and people think they'll migrate here, rather than going to the official Reddit mobile software (as a RedReader user, I've switched over), or going to Facebook/Instagram.
I know about the situation with the apps, I'm wondering why they didn't see the writing on the wall or why they wouldn't care until now.
Because it hasn't stopped working yet.
