    Not really sure what you’re talking about here. r/worldnews, r/news, r/UkraineWarVideoReport, r/CombatFootage, r/inthenews, r/RussiaUkraineWar2022, r/Ukraine, r/CrazyFuckingVideos, r/UkrainianConflict, and even r/Damthatsinteresting have posted about it today with thousands of upvotes each.

    r/WorldNews even has a stickied megathread about today’s news, and sorting by “Hot” on their sub only has a handful of posts not talking about the Wagner Group.

      Yeah, news about the war is one of the only reasons I still hold on to my reddit account. It may not appear in /r/all, but those subs contain a shitton of relevant content and active discussion about it.

        I think this might be it. Assumed it wasn’t there because it wasn’t in r/all right away - which in turn might be a side effect of all the changes reddit put in to hide protest content from r/all.

        So folks casually browsing and not knowing the subs may not see the news right away there, and give up and look at other sites instead. I’m happy to call this another win for the protest.
