Downvote me all you want, but with all of the updates the last few days and in conjunction with the lack of a canary, the below scenario seems more likely every day.

This was always intended as a honeypot.

Think about it - Reddit tightened the screws, increasing the heat of conversation and warranting a new space. These new forums opened - free discussion, expanding the list of forums (Q forums, too). Keep it open through the election, as people's emotions ebbed and flowed and people talked about various actions. Then, right after everything is "done" - boom, domain changes, "notes about the site", etc.

Think about it - how many people from January 6 probably posted here? The other day someone said the FBI came to their house because they were reported "by a friend" - maybe that wasn't the case?

Not trying to sound conspiratorial, but damn, this could have been one giant honeypot the entire time.

Everyone should really just treat the whole Internet as a honeypot.
