The most requested community in the past week: WallstreetBets
We've been following the situation, not wanting to release a WSB community without having their mods onboard. Well, we still don't have their mods on board. We talked to them in mid-2020, but never came to an agreement.
We hope that they don't get banned from Reddit (we'd pick up a good portion of that traffic, so don't do it, Steve.)
Having said that... the WSB Discord server just got banned (for hate, by the way), and it's very possible that the subreddit suffers the same fate...
Our unofficial WSB Win site:
https://wsbets.win/ or c/wsbets
We've had some well known WSB users reach out asking for us to set this up, and even some people who have been involved in the running of WSB, but to be very clear, this is NOT officially affiliated with the WSB subreddit (but we'll hand it over to them when they want it)
Update: WSB is NOT banned on Reddit. It's private, which is normally a decision by the moderators.
I haven't looked into the technical details of how Starlink works, but my assumption is that they are using Ka band which has significantly more available bandwidth than bands with lower frequencies. If you have 20 minutes, type in "Kymeta TED talk" on YouTube and he (former ceo) makes a pretty good explanation of the economics of it (much of the video covers their antenna tech but it is worth the watch).
