    I can't believe no one mentioned Crash Landing on You! A company heiress accidentally paraglides into North Korea and meets a military captain. It's dramatic, hilarious and heart-wrenching all at the same time. Great supporting characters too.

    My friend introduced me to the show. I was like, nah Kdramas aren't really my thing, but I was hooked after the first episode. It starts off slow but it picks up steam. The character development is wonderful. And the ending is just beautiful but at the same time I wanted their romance to continue.

    I haven't been able to find a comparable show ever since!

    RIF still works for me too. I was automatically logged out this morning but I can still browse. No error messages... yet.

    I wish all moderators and want-be-to moderators would wake up and realize Reddit HQ doesn't care about them nor the community. I mean sure, as a mod you can get a sense of power, but it's not worth the cost of free labour. Whatever "mask of friendliness" Reddit admins were wearing has been torn right off. Forcing subs to reopen? Removing mods at will? What the fuck are they thinking, waging war on their users like this? The whole situation is comical and I hope it all comes crashing down.

    Are you both out of your minds? Black is the best Tildes theme! Black has the highest contrast between words and the background. It's certainly better than the blinding White. Any other theme is too bright and cheerful for my tastes.

    Not only that! John has posted several pictures of himself in varying levels of sexiness! Let's hope he makes a segment on his show about the Reddit protest.

    As for Tildes, I like how it reminds me of Reddit is Fun. @talklittle (RiF developer) has posted praise for Tildes' design and is also making an app. The site is easily navigable while also being minimalist. The people are friendly and helpful. My only complaint is people seem a bit too "one-minded" and without any disagreements.

    Sherlock (BBC) Just strings and drums playing mysteriously, ominously. It sets a kind of serious tone for a kind of serious show. Lovely tune.

    Art Fight reminds me of another art collab. Have you heard of War for Rayuba? Artists create an original character and have them battle other artist's characters. I saw a video about it and it seems pretty epic.

    Unfortunately for me, my artistic skills are lacking. I'm only capable of drawing a stick figure.

    This artist's website gives a better description of it than I can.

    Down for me too. This is most curious, I'm sure not a coincidence. Maybe they're doing a mass reactivation of all subreddits that went dark?

    Thank you for recommending Tildes! I was disappointed at first that it was invite only. But after leaving a comment on that Reddit thread, someone shot me a message asking if I would like an invite, so here I am.

    As for the design of Tiles, I think it is somewhat reminiscent of the Reddit is Fun app in terms of minimalism and ease of use. I would like there to be more topics though.
